Let the redeemed of the Lord, say so.  Psalm 107:3  or as the New International Version says; Let the redeemed of the Lord, tell their story ... that's all the prompting I needed.


So in my spare time, I'm going through pictures for a Melissa & Spencer wedding slide show.  


What can I say about this one, except they were pretty excited about these skirts in 2008. Alert: New blog, I'm following ~ Before And Africa 


Also keeping me entertained and living in the past these days, is whether to induldge in paying  a server which will let me one click my iWeb stories to yet another domain name.


Technology.


Do you have defining moments, I did last night. While sitting alone with the window's open and the fireplace going, I tuned into the Grand Ole Opry radio station (online, of couse), to hear Ricky Skaggs celebrate his 30 years as a G.O.O. member.  


Before Ricky and all the guests concluded their 2 hour bluegrassy, old-time country show, he preached.  He preached the gospel. Straight up, no chasers.  Then they (The Getty's, Josh Turner, Ricky Skaggs, and Alison Krause) sang. 


I fell on my knees in worship.


In Christ alone my hope is found,
He is my light, my strength, my song;
this Cornerstone, this solid Ground,
firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
when fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My Comforter, my All in All,
here in the love of Christ I stand.

In Christ alone! who took on flesh
Fulness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones he came to save:
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of God was satisfied -
For every sin on Him was laid;
Here in the death of Christ I live.

There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain:
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave he rose again!
And as He stands in victory
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me,
For I am His and He is mine -
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

No guilt in life, no fear in death,
This is the power of Christ in me;
From life's first cry to final breath.
Jesus commands my destiny.
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
Till He returns or calls me home,
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.

Today I wanted to let the redeemed of the Lord say so.
