Genesis Genealogy
Together with a couple of guys from the Council of Man, I’m reading through the Bible this year. We’ve just finished reading through the genealogies of Genesis.
The last time I read through Genesis, I found it really helpful to visualize the genealogies. So, if anyone else out there is reading through the Bible this year, hopefully you’ll find this helpful:
Friday Frivolity: #NotMySaintNick
Since we’re now finally coming to the end of the Christmas season…
Working with JP2
Okay, this one is a little different. This is what I’ve been listening to all morning. It is audio from Saint Pope John-Paul II, interlaced with background music. It’s surprisingly good to have on in the background while working… 🙂

Music Monday: I shall not want
I cannot believe that “I shall not want” by Audrey Assad has not been on Music Mondays before!
I was on the phone this week with a friend and the Litany of Humility was mentioned, so when I got off the phone I went looking for the blog entry where I posted this song, one of my favourites from Audrey Assad, only to find that I had never shared here before!
Previously, I had posted the song from Danielle Rose, which is really beautiful and also which stays closer to the original text of the prayer, but here is the song by Audrey Assad which managed to work its way just that little bit deeper into my heart…
From the love of my own comfort
From the fear of having nothing
From a life of worldly passions
Deliver me O God
From the need to be understood
And from a need to be accepted
From the fear of being lonely
Deliver me O God
Deliver me O God
And I shall not want, no, I shall not want
When I taste Your goodness, I shall not want
When I taste Your goodness, I shall not want
From the fear of serving others
Oh, and from the fear of death or trial
And from the fear of humility
Deliver me O God
Yes, deliver me O God
