My playlist

You can learn a lot by looking at someone's ipod! Which songs are played the most? What titles does the owner find herself putting on each list?

I tend to choose songs based on my mood... or what I know my mood needs to be. Music is food for my soul. It feeds and lifts and focuses my attention on something - that something is Someone in my life. I desperately need to think on and be reminded that God cares about every little moment - whether I'm changing another poopy diaper or picking up the endless mess or just tickling little bellies. He is in this chaotic holy moment. I'm indebted to dear Ann Voskamp for her sweet convicting reminders at her blog.

I don't know what your playlist looks like, but whatever you put in your mind - be sure that it reflects your purpose to give God glory in all you do. This is not an easy task... to truly see the good in the midst of the ugly. But keep on dancing while the rain pours! I will by God's grace.
