It Was A Rather Nostalgic Sunday.

7/2/2012

Yesterday, I was having a lot of thoughts about the past. Remembering both good and bad times, as I was in a rather melancholy mood. Then all of a sudden I came upon some old cassette recordings of mine from way back in yesteryear. I started to check them out, and found four cassette tapes of old recordings that I had made off my cassette recorder back in the 70's. They were from a program I used to listen to called " The Scott Ross Show ", which was birthed during the Jesus Movement, and had a lot of contemporary Christian music.

I used to religiously listen to that broadcast each Sunday morning. From those broadcasts I learned about how personally Jesus wanted to be a part of my life. The ministry of Scott Ross and his guests encouraged me greatly in my Christian walk. Andre Crouch, Barry McGuire, Second Chapter of Acts, Larry Norman, and so many more touched my life with their personal testimony of what a difference Jesus Christ had made in their lives. I'd have to say they truly had an affect in my personal walk with God.

Two things touched my heart as I wrapped up those cassettes and put them away last night. One, how much God loves me and sends special people or things in my life to let me know how much He cares. Secondly, how important faithful perseverance is in our walk of faith. Why is that you may ask? Well, because it keeps us on a steady course, no matter what the obstacles of life that come our way. That's right, those people or " things " remind us of how special God's love is, and that in every way, shape and form He cares for us.

My friend in Christ will you pause and take the time to remember what Christ has done for you. Taking inventory of the special places God has " met " up with you and touched your life. I believe it will strengthen your faith, giving you new found hope. As you acknowledge God's love and presence in your journey of faith.

One of those songs that touched me from those cassette tapes. Enjoy my friends.

Praises, Andre Crouch and the Disciples
