A 14-year-old sings a Lauren Daigle ‘Rescue’ cover, and you’ve got to hear this! When Lauren Daigle sat down to write 'Rescue', she had in mind a loved one who was struggling with life, making it one of her most personal songs ever. Just listening to the song, you can sense her deep, raw, and real emotions. And the same goes for Hannah Elizabeth, a 14-year-old who sings ‘Rescue’ as a cover. Hannah has been performing for quite a while and is a member of Rise Up Children's Choir which is no wonder. Her voice is crystal clear and those who’ve listened to her have taken notice. One listener commented, “Fame is right at your door! Your voice is really soothing and nice and I think you’re an amazing singer and make sure to never give up! And be yourself.” While another said, “This is my favorite song, and you made it even more beautiful. Your voice is so clear, and perfect.” With more than 8,000 views already, it’s no surprise her cover of the song is going viral. It’s obvious listening to Hannah’s sweet voice hit the pitch perfect melody that she is just as passionate about the meaning of the song as Lauren is. Hannah's favorite line of the song, "there's never been a moment you were forgotten." The song starts with the words, “You are not hidden. There’s never been a moment you were forgotten,” and moves on to tell the story of how God will send out an army to rescue his beloved. When Lauren first released the song, she talked about where her inspiration came from. Lauren wrote it for someone close to her who was going through a difficult time. She wanted people to listen to this song and leave feeling that while they may be struggling, there are better times ahead. So true. When we remember God is with us and for us, it is the comfort we need. May we each take a moment to find and rescue someone who needs us to be the hands and feet of Jesus. “Because you love me, I will rescue you. I will protect you because you know my name. When you call to me, I will answer you. I will be with you when you are in trouble. I will save you and honor you. I will satisfy you with a long life. I will show you how I will save you.” Psalm 91:14-16

A COVID-19 patient played the violin while intubated so he could thank his healthcare workers. Healthcare providers and caregivers are the unsung heroes during the pandemic of 2020. They work long hours, they haven’t seen their families in weeks and they’re putting their own lives on the line to save the rest of us. But one patient found a way to say ‘thank you.’ Grover Wilhelmsen plays the violin while intubated to say thank you to these healthcare heroes. Grover, a 70-year-old retired Orchestra teacher, was hospitalized at McKay-Dee Hospital in Ogden, Utah, for more than a month. He couldn’t speak while intubated and instead communicated with the healthcare staff through writing. One afternoon, Grover wrote a note to his nurse, Ciara Sase. He said he wanted to play his violin to thank staff for saving his life. Ciara then coordinated with Grover’s wife of 47 years to bring the instrument into the hospital. As long as Ciara monitored his vitals, doctors agreed that he could play. In the video posted by the hospital, Grover is sitting up in his bed. He can be heard playing the "Tennessee Waltz" while his nurse Ciara looks on. Although ICU rooms are kept shut, Ciara said she turned on her Vocera, a communication device used in hospital settings, so her colleagues could hear Grover play. “It brought tears to my eyes. For all the staff to see a patient doing this while intubated was unbelievable,” she said, “Even though he was so sick, he was still able to push through. You could see how much it meant to him. Playing kind of helped to soothe his nerves and brought him back to the moment.” Several of the staff in the ICU gathered around the closed glass doors of Grover’s room to listen and watch as the retired teacher played. "It was honestly shocking to be there when he picked up the violin," Matt Harper, another RN at the hospital. "It felt like I was in a dream." It was not only a miracle for this man to recover enough from COVID to sit up in his bed, it was completely another to witness him say ‘thank you’ through the gift of music. What a blessing this man was to his entire medical team. “So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.” Galatians 6:10

Singer Jimmy Johnson speaks about his journey from being homeless to becoming a worship leader for Red Rocks Church. Imagine living in your car on the streets, being homeless as a teen while waiting to experience a breakthrough that only God can do. One worship leader has a testimony that shares just that. Jimmy had just graduated high school and was living in his car. After a stranger had asked him what he wanted to do, that conversation motivated Jimmy to scrape enough money together to make it to Virginia where he was accepted into school at Liberty University. He felt this was a big step in faith. That first year he lived off student loans but deep down he knew he wasn’t fully depending on God to provide, and he was getting himself into thousands of dollars of debt. But he remembered his prayers and believing God was going to do something big while he was at the college. While Jimmy was attending, he took advantage of trying out for an opportunity to be on the worship team on campus. Even though he didn’t know what would come from the tryouts, he felt God prompting him to try. Much to his humble surprise, he made it to the final rounds. By stepping out in faith he applied his trust in God throughout the tryouts and what happened next was mind-blowing. Jimmy merely thought he was trying out to be on the worship team. But when he was offered a position on the worship team, he was also offered a scholarship that would pay for all of his college expenses and tuition! God showed up in a big way and ensured Jimmy wouldn’t have to put himself in debt any further. He went on to graduate with a degree in music and is now a worship leader at Red Rocks Worship in Colorado. Red Rocks Worship is a collective community of worshipers, creatives, and songwriters. They’re passionate goal is to bring people closer to God. Based in Denver, the church has campuses that reach around the globe. Their hope is to make Heaven more crowded with a desire to reach the lost, the prodigals, and anyone who seeks closer communion with God. Jimmy and the team at multiple locations across the country aspired to create an intimate worship experience that will allow the listener to hear the songs with a fresh approach, a quiet spirit and to hopefully create a space for God to move in our hearts. It’s amazing what God can do when we trust in him for our breakthrough. So often we tend to rely on our own strength and resources when we merely need to look to our mighty God. Grab a tissue and get ready to praise God as you push play! “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?” Matthew 6:25

Carrie Underwood suffered multiple miscarriages, and the star opens up about how the loss of her children affected her faith. Sometimes we are guilty of viewing God as a genie in a bottle when it comes to him answering our prayers. But what if God didn’t answer our prayers? Are there any blessings that come from it? Carrie Underwood and her husband, Mike Fisher, say so as they wrestled with their faith after a miscarriage. Several years into their marriage, the couple was ready to have another baby after giving birth to their now five-year-old son, Isaiah. Carrie was ecstatic when she got pregnant easily enough. But then the unexpected happened, she miscarried. "It sounds wrong when you say it, but, it's one of those 'bad things that happen to other people,' you know what I mean? It's not something that you ever envision yourself having to deal with,” she commented. At first they were reassured that sometimes miscarriages happen for no apparent reason. So when they were ready, they began trying again because Mike was reassured in a dream they would have another son. "Mike came to me one day and said, 'We're gonna have another baby, and it's gonna be a boy, and his name's gonna be Jacob,'" Carrie said. "And I was like, 'OK, and you know this because...?'" "I was just kind of wrestling and probably the most honest I've been with God ever in my life," Mike explained. "And I heard not audibly, but I just... sensed that God told me we're gonna have a son and his name's Jacob." Shortly after, Carrie miscarried again. She then crawled in bed with her son who was sleeping and “bawled.” Carrie and Mike went on to miscarry again. At their fourth attempt at getting pregnant, there was a moment where Carrie felt like she suffered yet another miscarriage. "I just had an honest conversation with God, and I told him how I felt," she revealed. "I was hurt, I was a little angry. Of course, you feel guilty for being mad at your creator. And I told him I needed something," she went on. "We needed to have a baby -- or not ever. Because I couldn't keep going down that road anymore.” But the news that Carrie got the following Monday was stunning. Carrie and Mike were in shock. They learned their pregnancy was still viable. It was a mistake! "And we went in later on that day and had an ultrasound. And it's like, 'It's all OK. Everything's OK,'" she says. "So we were like, 'Jacob. This is Jacob.'" Mike said. Jacob was born on January 21, 2019. As the couple reflect on their journey of three miscarriages to joy, they confess they never thought of Jacob as a name. Mike said, it wasn’t ever a name they talked about but the story in the Bible tells how Jacob wrestled with God all night long before demanding his blessing from the Lord. Carrie and her husband identified with the wrestling with God and asking for their blessing--a child. Isn’t God good to us? He allows us to seek him with all our desires and wrestle with our faith but he never gives up on us! “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” Jeremiah 29:13

When we view The Bible through Western Church eyes it is easy to think of Jesus' beginnings as a baby born in Bethlehem. Nothing could be further from the truth! He was there from the beginning; - A Longer And Much More Glorious existence than many of us were lead to imagine.

I Want To Wish You A Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Mark 14:62
"And Jesus said, I AM:
and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power,
and coming in the clouds of heaven."
