... from Psalm 1, 19, and 2 Timothy 3-4
| Wonders Never Cease When I see the heavens I will hear them speak your peace When I see the mountains I will rise and find release For wonders never cease for all wonders are in You And wonder of wonders the wonderful is true! When I see the rivers I feel the Spirit flow When I see the oceans, Your depths I’ll seek to know For wonders never cease, Your wonders still amaze And wonder of wonders, You reveal your wondrous ways You are the Wonder of wonders You are the Wonderful One High above the heavens and earth Your wondrous will be done! |
When I see the star fields Spinning like a wheel |

There is none like You There is none like You- one whose mercy’s overflowing There is none like You- none so beautiful as You There is none like You- all seeing and all knowing None so faithful and true, There is none like You There is none like You, so compassionate and just There is none like You, who is worthy of all praise There is none like You Deserving all our trust Your name we raise, oh Ancient of Days! Lord You are beautiful! Your name we adore! Before your high and mighty throne we all bow down Lord your holiness and mighty power we confess There is no god like Yahweh to be found. There is none like You, none so wonderful and wise There is none like You-The beginning and the end There is none like You-One who never sleeps nor dies Your mystery we’ll never comprehend For all of this we dare to call You friend!

| Another Way Lord this morning as I pray Show me how to live this day In all I do and all I say To find another way to bring You Glory! Help me Lord my knee to bend As my days on Earth I spend From their beginning till their end I’ll find another way to bring You Glory. Help me Lord to seek the lost To cross all paths that must be crossed Help me Lord to pay the cost To find another way to bring You Glory! In my dealings with all men On your grace I will depend The Hope within me to defend And find another way to bring You Glory. How do we glorify the One in whom All glory’s found? Declare the glory, live by faith until we’re glory bound! |
 When I bow my head tonight May your servant in your sight Be good and faithful True and right To be another way to bring You Glory! Make me another way to bring You Glory! Make me another way to bring You Glory! Anthony Foster September 24, 2005 |

The flowers pictured on this page are September flowers. Even our lilac is in bloom right now, and I do not ever recall that happening!
March of the Penguins continues to march. check out Michael Medved's take on how Christians are enjoying the movie. And here is the official site at WB.
Pope Benedict XVI is said to have approved a document saying that homosexual men should not be ordained as Roman Catholic priests, a conservative Catholic Web site reported. I read in the St. Louis Post Dispatch a figure that shocked me- varying reports that between 10 and 50 percent of Catholic Priests are gay, celibate or not. If they cannot get any more accurate than that, why report it?

Except for the Grace of God Except for the grace of God I would I would not be here Except for the grace of God all joy would flee. For every good thing is held safe by God’s own staff and rod And I would be lost now except for the grace of God Except for the grace of God I would be wandering To join the swarm of death along the road But I’ll lie down in green pastures, sink my roots in holy sod I am held fast there by the good, good grace of God. Except for the grace of God I could not think straight For flights of fancy clutter up my mind And the very fact that I am sane would be so very odd I would go crazy except for the grace of God For all that I’ve been spared from in this place For every circumstance I have not faced, Deliverance and mercy my terrors all replace And bring me joy instead by God's good grace For by the grace of God I now am living And by the grace of God one day I’ll die I’ll stand before those gates of pearl and receive heaven’s nod I could do nothing except for the grace of God.

| Sing of the Beauty
of the Lord We see you in the beauty of the earth We see you in the glory of the skies For all good things declare your worth Evident to our exulting eyes So Oh Lord to your we raise A song of thanks a song of praise And we shall sing it all our days So we Sing of the beauty of the Lord. For the beauty of our time For the joys of sound and sight For the rhythms of words that rhyme For the radience of the light Lord in all creation we see The mystery of holy harmony Mirroring eternity So we sing of the beauty of the Lord! We see you in the wisdom of the flower We see you in the purity of snow We see you in the sureness of each hour The sunrise and seasons all shall show So Oh Lord to your we raise A song of thanks a song of praise And we shall sing it all our days So we Sing of the beauty of the Lord.

Pictures in the
Sky As I look into the heavens I see a great parade Pictures in the clouds and stars so beautifully arrayed My imagination's baptized so there's grace in all I see For the heavens have declared it and divulged the mystery. There's a tree and there's a serpent and a man and woman there And here comes an intercessor trading promise for despair And there's a rainbow in the heavens,and a cross on the horizon line Bands of animals in twos and sevens and some are left behind There's a lamb, and there's a lion and there's a wheel of fire And there's a bramble-tangled ram- most any picture I require. And I hear the mountain thunder and I see the red sea part And I see the people wander and I see their stone cold hearts There's an ark and there's a temple and there are giants in the land And an army of ten thousand angels marching on command The truth's reflected in the skies if it lives within my heart The pictures are there to make me wise if I regard heaven's art. Till Christ returns so I will learn To see with eyes of faith and with His passion burn. The glory of the Lord is displayed the clouds and in the star fields To whomever has the eyes to see the pictures are revealed They are more than just a story more than just a tale They're a witness to God's glory and they have not yet failed As I look into the heavens I see a great parade Pictures in the clouds and stars so beautifully arrayed My imagination's baptized so there's grace in all I see For the heavens have declared it and divulged the mystery.
