A couple weeks ago a bunch of us went to a Sunday afternoon organ concert after church, because the performer had special ties to our church. I had to chuckle to myself as "all us girls" double-checked our hair, redid our makeup, and smoothed our skirts or dresses. Some things just don't change, no matter what the culture. :)
And, speaking of things that don't change over culture, here is my "sentimental" song for the week: "Love Never Fails" by Brandon Heath. I'm not sure why, but it's been a good week to have the reminder that God is Love, and that He doesn't fail. There have been a lot of instances of grace this week--some that I and others have received willingly, and other instances not-so-willingly. It's funny how offensive the "love never fails" thought can be--because as humans, we definitely fail, and so to be faced with something unfailing somehow points out our guilt and shame even more clearly. If we get past the offense though, I think most of us come to the realization that we're desperate for love that is unfailing--no matter the culture. Yay for a reality of being held secure by the love of our Father-King.
