"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." (James 1:27)

Here I Am To Worship

I have to brag on Karsten. He started guitar lessons in January and is doing a great job. We are so thankful for his guitar teacher who is also a Christian. Yesterday he learned the song, "Here I Am To Worship" and Karsten has enjoyed practicing it. He wants to play it at his recital in a few weeks.

It brings joy to my heart to see Karsten using his talents for the Lord. It also, of course, brings tears to my eyes as he plays the song. I love the words!



So here Karsten is making a joyful noise unto the Lord.




Way to go, Karsten! We are so proud of you!

Romans 8:15-17
"For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption. And by him we cry 'Abba, Father.' The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children. Now if we are children, then we are heirs--heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory."
