Here all along

So far I haven't come across any distinct identification of a target audience for this song, but with the way the lyrics go it sounds appropriate for the backslidden. Ok, I haven't been to church in awhile but I don't think I'm gonna say I'm coming back because I've never been away, just lagging behind church attendance. The world to me hasn't gone upside down. Anyway, the graphics are scenic, and the message lovely.

It's interesting because Jesus is always there. We're the ones who can tend to wander. Great message and song. Happy TSMSS!

Thank you for sharing with us this beautiful message in song. I have undergone a lot of trials since coming to the U.S. Life is not easy being away from home but am glad I have a loving Father who is just a prayer away.

This song will remind us that there is no other rest that Jesus alone.. He is the Only One who could give us the real satisfaction and it's not the glory of the world..

Blessings Hazel...Going back to Jesus has a wonderful message...and this was so beautifully sung and done! HE IS always there so it just takes us turning our hearts towards Him & making Him as important as HE made us when He gave His life...you need a good church that makes you want to be there and keep coming back...I pray that you find it soon & feel that welcome home of His loving arms! I'm sure you are not backslidden just slowing fading and you need His fire...hope you enJOY TSMSS & the songs feed your spirit!

I think at one time or another we all tend to "wander"...how comforting to know He doesn't and His always there the same yesterday, today and always...Blessings to you, Debbie

Sense and Sensibility: 200th anniversary

In 1811 Thomas Egerton of Whitehall, London published Sense and Sensibility . Quick math shows it has been two centuries since Jane Austen became a full-fledged author. Quite an anniversary, indeed. A celebration, I declare . Blogs regarding the publication anniversary of this romance novel picture Jane Austen 's engagements whilst making the final touches of her manuscript from Sloane Street. In letters to her sister Cassandra, Jane gave accounts of her shopping for muslin, the party that their brother Henry and SIL Eliza gave; mentioned several acquaintances, and referred to her book as S and S . As a fan I wonder which between sense and sensibility did JA deem more important since she portrayed both attributes equally well. I'm obliged to enthuse over my S & S reading experience. Alas, I only managed fourteen chapters before getting sidetracked by another novel, the very first that JA wrote. I will resume and complete my affair with the celebrant before 2011 end...

Hallelujah Chorus: stand or sit?

According to legend, King George II of England rose to his feet when the Hallelujah Chorus was sung. Following protocol his subjects rose up as well. Thus began the tradition of audiences around the world rising during the Hallelujah performace. There are many speculations as to why the king stood or if he even stood at all. The Bangkok Combined Choir is composed of volunteer singers of around twenty nationalities. Every year in December, the choir performs Handel's Messiah. I sang once. (pure luck: there was no audition in 2000) Rehearsals got me thinking of the tradition of standing when the Hallelujah Chorus is sang. I googled what people have to say and my today is a list of opinions about audience decorum during the chorus: 1. The Hallelujah Chorus is like an anthem for the church. Whenever you hear it you are supposed to stand up. 2. Standing for the Hallelujah Chorus just interrupts the performance. 3. People should not be taught that they need to stand up at a certain time ...
