I have had this song by Chris Rice on my heart and mind all day

Quote:

Every day is a journal page Every man holds a quill and ink And there's plenty of room for writing in All we do is believe and think So will you compose a curse Or will today bring the blessing Fill the page with rhyming verse Or some random sketching Teach us to count the days Teach us to make the days count Lead us in better ways That somehow our souls forgot Life means so much Life means so much Life means so much Every day is a bank account And time is our currency So nobody's rich, nobody's poor We get 24 hours each So how are you gonna spend Will you invest, or squander Try to get ahead Or help someone who's under Teach us to count the days Teach us to make the days count Lead us in better ways That somehow our souls forgot Life means so much Life means so much Life means so much Has anybody ever lived who knew the value of a life And don't you think giving is all What proves the worth of yours and mine Teach us to count the days Teach us to make the days count Lead us in better ways That somehow our souls forgot Life means so much Every day is a gift you've been given Make the most of the time every minute you're living

Made me reflect again on yesterday's Daily Bread devotional

It’s been said that each life is like a book, lived one chapter at a time. If you think your most fruitful years are behind you, remember you’re writing a new chapter now. Learn to live each day with contentment in the present.

May God help us to treasure Life and to be content

Thank you very much, Cheri! What a wonderful, uplifting song!

Chris Rice is one of my fave composer/musicians because his lyrics are so profoundly simple and the music he accompanies them with is oh so beautiful

Music is a vital force in my life and I find God speaks through it to me in ways that have often made a tremendous impact....He sometimes seems to get through to me with music when nothing else can

That's one of the reasons I keep Z radio on for my computer, car and everywhere .... 55min of continuous uplifting music every hour....the "Listen" button is top left next to the "Home" one
