Psalm 130

Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD; O Lord, hear my voice.
Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy.
If you, O LORD, kept a record of sings, O LORD, who could stand?
But with you there is forgiveness; therefore you are feared.
I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in his word I put my hope.
My soul waits for the LORD more than watchmen wait for the
morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning.
O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is unfailing
love and with him is full redemption.
He himself will redeem Israel from all their sins.

Song of Moses

Great and marvelous are your deeds,
Lord God Almighty.
Just and true are your ways,
King of the ages.
Who will not fear you, O Lord,
and bring glory to your name?
For you alone are holy.
All nations will come and worship before you,
for your righteous acts have been revealed.

Revelation 15

This brought a couple of tears to my eyes...tears of happiness

How many is a few?

"A couple is two (possibly 2 and a half, if we're talking about cookies.) A few is three, unless you're talking about people, in which case, it could be as many as six. Once you invite seven or more people over, it's a bunch. 11 is the outer limit of few for items (especially cookies.)

These are highly scientific measurements. Please don't ask for cite. I have to go get a handful of cookies (approximately 47) now, I'm famished. Seriously, though- I essentially agree with you. Few is relative. A few cookies is way more than a few people."

A nice 20 minutes of music

Moby with Kelli Scarr on NPR

I have a personal soft spot for Moby. And I had no idea he could cover songs on guitar like this. Just good music.

And an excellent Bo Jackson piece

Bo - The Director's Cut

An excellent baseball post

A little something about Robin Roberts, a hall of fame baseball player....

Last Day of Class

Today was our last day of Spanish class for the semester. We got our diplomas and then went and had breakfast out an outdoor bar/restaurant. These are our professors. Estela with the green nose and Anchi (short for Esperanza, which means hope) is in the red. Anchi had the noses in her bag for some reason...

God's Word

My soul faints with longing for your salvation,
but I have put my hope in your word...
Your word, O LORD, is eternal,
it stands firm in the heavens.
Your faithfulness continues though
all generations;
you established the earth, and it endures...
Your word is a lamb unto my feet
and a light for my path.

(from Psalm 119)

Teach Me

Teach me, O LORD, to follow your decrees;
then I will keep them to the end.
Give me understanding,
and I will keep your law
and obey it with all my heart.
Direct me in the path of your commands,
for there I find delight.
Turn my heart toward your statures
and not toward selfish gain.
Turn my eyes away from worthless things;
preserve my life according to your word.
Fulfill your promise to your servant,
so that you may be feared.
Take away the disgrace I dread,
for your laws are good.
How I long for your precepts!
Preserve my life in your righteousness.
