Brand New Day

Uh, Beth?  You did this song already...yesterday.  You okay? 
HA!  I'm just fine - same title, different song and artist! :) 
Sense a theme for the week? 

Admittedly I live in a bit of a bubble so Joshua Radin may not be new to you but I have never heard of him or his music until this morning.  Yesterday when I was pulling up on YouTube "Brand New Day" I saw a bunch of artists who have songs with the same title so I thought I'd check into some of them this week.  So we'll see how many days I can pull the same title but yet different song/artist.  :)  This morning when I pulled it up Joshua Radin presented himself, I listened, I liked, and so he's the featured artist today!  I love a guy who can play the guitar with seemingly no effort.  It's like they are connected and it flows so beautifully.  Radin is that kind of guitar player. 

First thing I thought of when listening to this song is the word from God in Psalm about weeping that will last through the night but joy that will come in the morning.  It's not literal every time.  Sometimes it truly is a real time night and morning but in life, more often than not, the nights lasts a while and then morning eventually breaks.  That's what this song makes me think of.  Radin sings about feeling good, finally, after such a long, long time of not feeling happy.  The feeling that you have when you finally witness daybreak in your heart is hard to describe.  It's a relief, among other things.  The amazing thing is that God is with you, with me, in the night of weeping and in the morning of joy.

The Feast of Firstfruits & Easter Go for Broke Day If it scares you this is the day to go for it no matter what. One Day Without Shoes Day Today is to raise global awareness for children’s health and education.  Why shoes? Because shoes help protect from bacteria in the dirt, rusty nails, dirty needles and shoes enable feet to withstand the long distances most children in developing countries need to walk to get to school. Join TOMS One for One There is plenty of criticism out there for TOMS and its short term solutions. Critics don't even buy the "at least they are doing something" statement.  However, you have to start somewhere. And every bit of awareness helps something go from short term to long term.  We all have a part to play. Read a Road Map Day One of the many reasons I would stink at The Amazing Race is because I never did learn how to read a road map well.  I remember doing worksheets and class lessons on maps and I was able to skate by to pa
