Called To Worship

I have been reading a book titled Called To Worship by Vernon M. Whaley. This book takes you on journey studying worship throughout the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. Dr. Whaley has taken some familiar stories and some unfamiliar stories and related them back to our purpose: worshipping God.

Though this is a lengthy book ( 300+ pages), I found myself captivated by the points Dr. Whaley makes. This book is very good for people that do not know all of the stories because he discusses them at length. This was the only downfall for me. Sometimes the "background information" was too lengthy since I am familiar with most of the stories he discussed. However, I enjoyed reading them because he pulled out themes of worship I had not thought of prior to this book. Overall, I was very challenged and called to a higher need for true worship in my life.

We were blessed to welcome Jackson into the world. He was such a blessing to us and a gift. He keeps us on our toes at ALL times. His laughter brightens our days. I think he will have some similarities to Todd but will have his own aspects, too. He loves to read books and climb into buckets. He likes cars or trucks and he loves the dogs and his brother. He is beginning to use lots of language. He says bye, momma, dadda, buba, dog, five, and has his own "words" for buddy, rocket, see you, and peek-a-boo. He can get anywhere he wants to go. He can clap, too.

Jackson, you were an answered prayer for many of us. You are blessed to have the best big brother you could have. May God continue to bless you just as you have blessed us!
