The Way
April 27, 2008
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. (John 14:6)
If you are walking daily with the Lord, you will not have to find God’s will—you will already be in it. If you are walking with Him in obedience day by day, you will always be in the will of God. The Holy Spirit’s role is to guide you step by step to do God’s will. Walking closely with God each day guarantees that you will be exactly where He wants you to be. You would have to reject all of the Holy Spirit’s activity in your life in order to get out of the will of God.

In Response: iRonnie Selects A Travel Music
“The first time I heard this song from Tracy Chapman I thought it has catchy and unique tune. Though it talks about escaping life’s problems, I do love to listen to it on a fast car.

Carly Smithson was the 19th contestant voted off from American Idol Season 7. She made it through the top 6 and was eliminated April 23 after singing “Jesus Christ Superstar” on Andrew Lloyd Weber Night. I’d say her performance was just okay. I’m not really that impress. Though I think Brooke White should have been the one to go.
Her performance which I admired the most was way back during Hollywood Week when she sang Heart’s “Alone”.

Hooked On Cook
April 21, 2008
No, it’s not yet TGIF time but I can’t help but share David Cook‘s interpretation of Always Be My Baby. I’ve been listening to it for the whole day today.
What I like about this guy is the way he turns around the songs he choose to perform on American Idol. Take last week for instance, he successfully made a Mariah Carey song into something that the male specimen will not be ashamed to listen to. I cannot help but to look forward to his next performance because he can manage to pull off nice surprises most of the time.

Anointing Jesus’ Feet
April 20, 2008
Then Mary took a pound of very costly oil of spikenard, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the oil. (John 12:3)
Mary seemed drawn to the feet of Jesus. It is not surprising that of all those who followed Jesus, Mary was the one to anoint His feet. The disciples would have their opportunity to show the same love, but pride would prevent them (John 13:12–13). Martha, too, was prone toward acts of service, but she had developed a different kind of relationship with Jesus than Mary had. While Martha had labored on Jesus’ behalf in the kitchen, Mary had joyfully sat at Jesus’ feet and listened to Him teach (Luke 10:38–42). Because Mary had come to know and love Jesus in this way, she was ready to humble herself and offer this poignant expression of love to Him. Such depth and sincerity of love comes only through spending time in close fellowship with Jesus.

American Idol Season 7′s Top 7 Sings Mariah Carey

A lot of people watching American Idol were shocked when Michael Johns was voted off last week. Others were even offended with the way Ryan Seacrest announced it. I really think someone else should have gone instead of him. It was a shame that he was voted off after a good performance.
Anyway, tonight was all about Mariah Carey songs as she was the guest vocal coach of the episode. With her five octave range and chart topping songs, singing her songs will be a challenge everyone must overcome. Here’s what I think of tonight’s performances:
