He Is Worthy of Worship


A quote from A.W. Tozer,

"Sometimes I go to God and say, "God, if Thou dost never answer another prayer while I live on this earth, I will still worship Thee as long as I live and in the ages to come for what Thou hast done already. God’s already put me so far in debt that if I were to live one million millenniums I couldn’t pay Him for what He’s done for me."


Were the whole realm of nature mine,
That were a present far too small,
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my life, my soul, my all.

Oh, the wonderful cross
Bids me come and die
And find that I may truly live

Thank you for the cross!

Thanksgiving in Texas


I hope everyone had a blessed thanksgiving break.

This year the Berry clan did the Texas two-step. My family lives in Austin and Michelle's lives in Palestine. We went to both.

On Turkey day we were in Austin at my parents house. My brother, his wife, my niece and nephew came over. All the kids had a great time playing with one another and doing things with grammy.

We ate a lot, watched some football, and had a great time hanging out with family.

The Friday after, we packed up and drove from Austin to East Texas to be with Michelle's family. More turkey and more fun.

Uncle Chuck had set up Guitar Hero on papa's new big screen t.v. We all died laughing while playing that game. To see grandma singing a rock song, and papa playing guitar was worth the price of admission.

Then Saturday, we visited the dentist office(papa is the dentist), had our teeth cleaned and headed back to Southlake.

Overall, it was a good time and now we can focus on the stretch run to Christmas!

Jesus, Thank You

A Song For Thanksgiving

I thought I would repost my blog about the song "Jesus, Thank You". I think it is an appropriate reminder for all that I should be thankful for.

I am very picky about worship music. I recently stumbled across a great song by Sovereign Grace Ministries and Bob Kauflin. It is a great worship song, about propitiation called "Jesus, Thank You." If I knew how to upload audio to this blog I would put it on here. I don't so here are the lyrics.



The mystery of the cross I cannot comprehend,
The agonies of Calvary.
You, the Perfect Holy One, crushed Your Son,
Drank the bitter cup reserved for me.

Your blood has washed away my sin,
Jesus, thank You.
The Father’s wrath completely satisfied,
Jesus, thank You.
Once Your enemy, now seated at Your table,
Jesus, thank You.

By Your perfect sacrifice I’ve been brought near,
Your enemy made Your friend.
Pouring out the riches of Your glorious grace,
Your mercy and your kindness know no end.

Your blood has washed away my sin,
Jesus, thank You.
The Father’s wrath completely satisfied,
Jesus, thank You.
Once Your enemy, now seated at Your table,
Jesus, thank You.
