The immediate inspiration for this piece came from a teaching I heard yesterday on the radio by Dr. Michael Youssef (ltw.org) As I worked on the piece throughout the day and evening, I heard another of my favorite teachers, Dr. R.C. Sproul (Ligonier.org) on the radio reading his children’s story, The Lightlings, which led to the first line of the final verse.
Good fruit bearing in my life;
Living waters flowing from inside;
The word of truth for my guide;
How could I ask for more?
A worldly lure of things and fame;
a price to pay of guilt and shame.
From these saved by a greater name,
how could I ask for more?
Upon me a great light has shined
with grace and mercy, steadfast and kind;
restoring heart, renewing mind.
How could I ask for more?
I have not read a lot of good things regarding Webfetti — mainly people wanting to remove it from their computers, so I am just looking for alternatives which i do not need to set up.. Do you have web-sites where I can copy requirements from to change the layout of my blogspot blog page? The layouts on blogspot are great to get you started, but I’m ready for a change..
Hello Mary,
I cannot be of help regarding the technical issues you referenced in your comment. My experience is not yet to the point where I can give advice or refer you to a specific site for a solution to your concern. Best wishes. Sincerely, Rick
I am just creating a brand-new blog about literature ( what We’ve read, what I’m reading), but I am just having trouble thinking of a title. I like the idea of something having to do with an obsession with literature but I believe bookophilia can be on the average side. What do you think of Litophilia? Is it too just like “lithophilia” Meaning the like of stones? Any suggestions? Thanks!.
Hello Isaiah, Thanks for your question. Litophilia seems like a good title based on the goal you described to me, although it may suffer a bit from not exactly rolling off the minds tongue. As for being too like “lithophilia”, I wonder how many people besides yourself or others who may like stones even know that such a word exists. I know that your comment has increased my vocabulary by at least one. (More if you count the words based on the root “litho-” that I found in Webster’s when I was looking for lithophilia. For example “lithophagous: eating or swallowing stones or gravel, as the ostrich.” If I come up with any good suggestions I will forward them to you. Thanks again. Best wishes, Rick
