Scripture Memory Put To Music

This morning I sat infront of my little men as they ate their breakfast and sang at the top of my lungs "John 3:16", from the Seeds of Faith CD, put out by Provident Distribution Group. I must highly recommend this CD, along with Seeds of Courage. As I sat and sang the words to this precious verse, I was overcome with gratefulness by its truth. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

Initially as I sang, I wondered if my neighbors would be irritated because I play our music so loudly when daddy's not home! :) But that thought prompted another thought. All around me are folks who would not appreciate this song, who would not see the wonderful mercy in this verse, who would not claim this verse as their life's only hope. That thought ushered in such gratefulness to my heart that the Lord placed His hand of mercy on my life, apprehended me out of the darkness and brought me into His glorious light. As if that wasn't enough, he gives me the opportunity to daily proclaim his goodness and greatness to my sons, who will one day, by God's grace, receive Him as their Savior. Thank you, Lord.

Let me recommend another resource our family has benefitted from immensely. They are also scripture memory CD's, put out by Forever Grateful Music, scripture memorization songs by Mark Altrogge. There are now 5 CD's out, the newest being The Word of the Cross, fully loaded with the wonderful truths of scripture, put to a variety of styles of music helping young and especially old to commit scripture to memory.
