Update

Hey all, As always, thank you so much for listening and commenting through email. I appreciate all of you and your comments so please stay in touch. Things are going well here in WI. So far the day has gone much to my liking. Woke up to distant thunder and now the thunderstorm is passing over. I absolutely love mornings like this. It is a great day for sure. I hope you are all doing well and enjoying life as much as you can. We are only given so many days and we need to be thankful for the ones we have. This week's song story is for the song, "Anchor's Aweigh." This song, in a nutshell, is about all the different philosophies and religions out there. It seems there are bandwagons that people just line up for and it doesn't seem to take much to draw us all away from the Truth. I know in my core that God sent Jesus to save people from eternal separation from Him. I know without a doubt that Jesus died in my place to save me from my much deserved eternal death. I am confident that when I die I will be in the presence of the Great Creator. NOTHING on this earth; no religion, no false theology, no ill philosophy (as smart as they may sound) will draw me away from the Truth that is in my soul. I am hopeful in mankind that we could come together, even in our differences, and co-exist in a loving and peaceful way. But, that does me no eternal good. As a Christian I am called to love my enemies and do good to those who hurt me. You don't have to agree with me or my beliefs, that's fine. But Truth is Truth whether it is believed or not. "Heaven is what heaven will be, I'm just happy to go." I don't need to quarrel about religion and beliefs or argue with my brothers and sisters in Christ about the specific details of what heaven is. Nor do I need to debate the so called "contradictions" of the Bible. I will never claim to have all the answers nor will I pretend that I am greater than anyone else. God (Jesus, the Holy Spirit) is perfect and far beyond my understanding. How dare I try explain His mystery. I am simply humbled and grateful that He has loved the terrible sinner that I am and sent Jesus to bridge the gap between Himself and my wretched being. I am so undeserving and yet He loves me. There is nothing greater than that knowledge. Once this is understood, NO OTHER way of thinking compares. I hope you come to this understanding and, if you don't know Christ Jesus, come to know Him who is greater than anything the world could offer. I am reduced to humility to know that you guys are listening to these songs. I honestly thought no one would care. I recorded them simply for memories to share with my children and their children. God is great and will do with them and me as He pleases. Be well, everyone, and be kind to one another. Thank you, thank you! Aaron/Caster9
