Saturday Night with the Family
This was a pretty good Saturday night. Our family went to a Worldvision exhibit followed by a concert and they were both excellent. The exhibit is a travelling exhibit called “World Vision Experience – Aids.” The exhibition is travelling around the country to raise awareness of the orphans created by the Aids pandemic in Africa. If you have a chance to experience this I would recommend it. It is a unique point of view that really gets you thinking.
After seeing the Worldvision exhibit, we then enjoyed a concert by Sara Groves. Sara has a beatiful voice and the stories that she shares about her music and faith made the concert very enjoyable. One of the things I enjoy about Christian artists is the role model the provide for kids. Sara came out after the concert and signed the girls posters and talked to them for a couple minutes. She is a very down to earth genuine person.

Words to Live By
I listen to a lot of Contemporary Christian Music and I just love the messages that can be found in so many of the lyrics. Every now and then a song really hits me and I want to share it with others. One song that I have shared with some friends recently is a song by Mark Schultz called “The Time that is Left.” I just love the words to this song and try to think about them every day as they remind me of what is really important. I have included the words for you here:
What will you do with the time that’s left Will you live it all with no regret? Will they say that you loved till your final breath? What will you do with the time that’s left?
What will you do with the time that’s past? Oh and all the pain that seems to last? Can you give it to Jesus and not look back? What will you do with the time that’s past? What will He say when your time has come? When He takes you into His arms of love? With tears in His eyes will He say well done? What will He say when your time has come? Peace Greg
