First Church of God

Candi and I head home after two days with Jonah and Sara in Anderson.  I enjoy the weekend all over again in the car as my mind plays through the memories…  seeing their new home, unloading the packed van,  a walk through the valley, my favorite meal (chicken wrapped in bacon), playing cards (the guys win), King Gyros, a heartland movie, Mocha Joes, Jake, Mary, Sara’s kids, praying for Jonah and his interview, Panera… good stuff.

Candi gets us to Kokomo, where I take over driving for the last two hours home.  Should I listen to the radio, maybe catch a sports channel?  No.  But maybe they’ll say something about fantasy football…  How about listening to that CD that Alise gave you last Sunday?  Alberto and Kimberly Rivera?  Yes.  Okay (reluctantly).

I am immediately transported into the Father’s presence.  Have I ever experienced music that so instantly moves me?  I don’t think so. 

Let the waters cleanse and wash me. 

Purify me in your presence

Let the rain fall down upon me.

Lord, I have discovered one more way to pause and be in your presence!  This anointed music will become a part of my regular routine for sure.
