Wednesday, February 2, 2011

It happens. The car breaks down. The bottomless pit feeling hits your stomach. "Really, God? Today?" We blame the hard knocks of life on our Creator like it is His fault. But the truth is, in this less than perfect world, bad stuff happens. To everyone.

That's how my day started. Now I'll do my best to praise God for who He is - and not just for all that He does for me.

GROUNDHOG DAY:

Punxsutawney Phil did NOT see his shadow. Legend persists that we will have an early Spring! Hooray! Of course, meteorologists have confirmed that Spring's official start date is still March 20th, no matter what Phil saw or didn't see...

Ever wonder where Groundhog Day came from? Not the movie - the day. CLICK HERE to learn all about it!

ARTIST OF THE DAY
Bread Of Stone



Indonesian brothers Ben and Bill Kristijanto along with their other band mates Tim Barnes (bass) and Wesley Holt (drums) make up Bread Of Stone. This internationally flavored band uses their pop/rock music to move people closer to Jesus. Not only was their new album produced by the folks behind TobyMac, Britt Nicole, Delirious, and Mute Math - but the depth of their lyrics will surprise you. There is no beating around the bush when it comes to boldly praising Jesus!

The song "Beautiful" is their first single from the new album. It came to be after a mission trip to Ben and Bill's home country Indonesia:

“The song was lyrically inspired by one of the lessons learned there,” said lead singer, Ben Kristijanto. “We spoke to a recent convert named Abraham and he told us that when he heard about the Gospel of Christ, he was in awe of how someone so great would come down for someone like him and take his desperate and bleak situation and turn into something beautiful.”
