I can appretiate all kinds of music! I love MySpace for bringing me even more than I ever imagined!
Music is one thing that has always built up my faith in God! We are the only species that can create, and evoke an emotional response with music! Music is powerful! It can build you up, bind you together, tear you down and rip you apart...bask in it, glow in it, grow in it!
You will never hear a member of the human race exclaim "I hate music!" We were designed to create it, nurture it, use it, and cherish it!

The Holy Bible
I prefer the Peoples Parallel Version so I can learn the King James with the help of the Living Bible.
I recommend spending alot to have the Strong's Exhausive Concordance...and you'll spend very little to have a copy of God's Promises For Your Every Need published by Countryman it's a collection of scriptures (King James Version) in an organized format for use in the daily lives of ANYONE who finds that life can be difficult and challenging!

About me: I like gardening, scrapbooking, photography, reading, and spending time with my family! I love music and will begin piano lessons this year along with my son. I have a great appreciation for classic cars as well. My greatest passion is photography and there are just tons of them stuffed up there in my blogs! My greatest wish is to visit Yellow Mountain in China! Dan and I want to adopt a sibling group. If you or someone in your family know of a group of children needing a forever family, you may contact us here.
If you're ever lying on a beach with 80 billion grains of sand beneath you, 700 thousand ocean waves before you, 60 million stars stretched out above you, and you're still not at all impressed, I want you to think about this.. the light you see reflecting from the stars is over one million years old! WOW! ...but then, just before you start to feel like a mere blip in the gigantic scheme of things, please remember this.. yes, you are small, but you're also irreplaceable, invaluable, and miraculous.. those stars dont have anything on you!!! If you feel there's no plan for you or that you've really messed up Plan A in your life...Look above those billions of grains of sand and over the thousands of ocean waves, look up beyond all those stars and past all the planets, and know this...YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE LIKE YOU! KNOW THAT IF YOU WAIT ON GOD and you ask HIM, he will show you Plan B!
"When I came to you, I did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom declaring to you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling. And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God." 1 Corinthians 2:1-5
Dan and I celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary on December 23...we are so blessed!
Who I'd like to meet: That "bag-lady" who lives in the next town over who collects pop cans to buy bread for the ducks, the dad who at the gas station, always takes his baby daughter out of the car seat and in to pay for his gas, the boy who mowed my lawn for three weeks after my late husband past away, the old man who takes his coffee black and drinks from the same cup as his wife, that hippie dude that passes out marble colored balloons at the market, that guy we call "The Town Cryer" who bellows out Elvis songs down by the courthouse.

Thank you very much Anna. I appreciate the input. It is a big support for starving artists like me to hear someone say that they actually like and appreciate what we do. -Korrie
Oh My!! Girl you must be freezin!! You should be like a snowbird and come down south for the winter! lol How've you been?? How's life treating you?? Everything is "Peachy" down here in GA :) Try to stay warm!
A new year is unfolding—like a blossom with petals curled tightly concealing the beauty within.
Lord, let this year be filled with the things that are truly good—with the comfort of warmth in our relationships, with the strength to help those who need our help and the humility and openness to accept help from others.
As we endeavor to walk in our calling for the year ahead, let us go forward with great hope that all things can be possible—with Your help and guidance. In Jesus name, Amen.
Love and every blessing, Therese & Mark
Philippians 3:13 - I do not consider, brethren, that I have captured and made it my own [yet]; but one thing I do [it is my one aspiration]: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead...
