One of my favorite songs right now is a song by a man named Jeremy Camp.  It’s entitled "There will be a Day."  I want to share the first verse and chorus with you in closing today. It goes like this:
I try to hold on to this world with everything I have
But I feel the weight of what it brings,

                    The chorus of the song “Only One Life” says: “Only one life, ‘twill soon be past. Only what’s done for Christ will last!”

                    THE BROTHER'S SONG
Like any good mother, when Karen found out that another baby was on the way, she did what she could to help her 3-year-old son, Michael, prepare for his sister.  Day after day and night after night, Michael sang to his sister in Mommy's tummy.
He was building a bond of love

                    SONG – GOD BLESS AMERICA.
An eerie quiet fell over the battlefield near the French city of Verdun.  It was Nov. 11, 1918, and the guns were abruptly silent.  Some of the soldiers sank to the ground; others stared into space.  Some began to shake.  The Great War was finished, but the men could not

Boom!  Boom!  The two-fold pounding of the avalanche cannon awoke me from my slumber.  No, we didn't get snow last night, I mused.  But sure enough, God dumped nine inches of fresh snow onto the mountains above.  Now, I love winter; it's great skiing on fresh powder.  However, I

Facing the lighting and the crash of thunder 
Oh How I wonder
Is there no hope of me ever going home
I was walking through the storm all alone.
