My son, Richard, has written a beautiful post over on his blog called “When My Soul Sings.” He reminds us that a primal awe towards God must always and forever remain at the heart of all that we are and all that we do. There is no other starting point for walking out a real, authentic, vibrant life of faith in Jesus.
I have so many questions…. But when the veil of dirt is blown aside and I catch a glimpse of You, even just the momentary, fleeting sight of You moving… I am frozen in my tracks, and can only speak softly, “What are You?”
Actually, excerpts do not do this post justice so go ahead and read it, then let’s discuss how we can keep this type of awe-filled reality alive in our own walk!

Thank you for introducing me to your son’s writing – ‘When My Soul Sings’ is truly my heart and soul’s cry – I just cannot express it as well as he does.
GOD Bless!
I, too, appreciated very much the genuine worship-filled thoughts that were behind Richard’s words. I have carried a printout with me and plan to use it as our small group begins again tonight.
Also had printed your book and read it while on vacation. Thank you for making that available. I found parts 1, 2, 4, and 5 particularly envigorating and helpful.
