Matt Papa....my new favorite artist

Check this  video out.  I've been loving his music since I discovered it a few weeks ago.  Apparently he's been around, but I love his music and his lyrics.  He has a variety of different musical styles, which makes the CD fun to listen to since the songs aren't that predictable musically.  However, his lyrics are incredible.  They are very biblical and challenging.  He dares to go deep and make you uncomfortable.  I love it!  Listen to what he has to say about this song and I think you'll find yourself worshipping Christ with your whole heart because the words point to Christ.  I keep his CDs on throughout my day and they remind me to pray for the missionaries, to live out the gospel even if it's uncomfortable and to live as a follower of Christ even when others think I've gone mad!  I'm interested in your thoughts on his music.   (The full band version is better than the acoustic version but you it's still good.  It makes it easy to hear the words.)

Japan

Please remember Japan in your prayers.  My brother and I have a friend over there that I went to school with through high school.  She's so sweet and funny, but her seaweed sushi smelled nasty and could smell up an entire car!  I'll never forget how stinky that was.  Anyway, please pray for Asuka and her family.  We haven't heard from her to know how she is.  We're not for sure how close she is/was to all of the disaster.  I think she was somewhere in/near Tokyo last I heard.
