Not Well

I was shocked to discover that I haven't even THOUGHT about blogging since my last entry. I've been so preoccupied dealing with my liver problem and back pains and trying not to have another gallbladder attack (not to mention chueffering -is that how you spell it?- my kids around and homeschool)that I just now remembered that I even to this. I am "herbalizing and supplementing myself" to death and while it seems to be helping, is still a slow process. It will take months and years to get out of the woods. Speaking of woods...

I planted seeds in a starter box last week and when they sprouted, proceeded to bake them in the mini greenhouse. They all died immediately and I'm wondering if the unsprouted ones were just cooked in their shells and I should start all over. I should just stick to singing. It's alot easier. I TRY to diversify...

My prayers to your speedy recovery and good health.

My wife and I visited Oregon in 2007, and while we were sightseeing in rental vehicle enjoying the awesome beauty of God's creation of the northern part of the Oregon coast, I was searching through several radio stations for good Christian Music. I stumbled across a radio station, KBVM, a Catholic radio station. I heard a song you sang that contained the lyrics "passion". It sounded like a prayer and ever since, I've been searching earnestly for this song.

The song, if I remembered correctly, was accompanied with, what sounded like children voices as a chorus background that began every time the word "passion" ended in the lyrics.

Today, I was going through my old files and I stumbled across a note I wrote. It was dated August 30, 2007 at 3:15pm. This note had the information of the radio station and the name I wrote down as "Passion" while we were in Oregon. This lead me to search the Internet once again to find this song.

I've visited your website, but I couldn't determine what CD or album it was. Would you be nice to let me know what song it was? This will certainly put an end to my long journey on my quest to find this song. For 3 years this song has been on my mind and in my heart. My wife and I are planning another trip to Oregon in July 14th-28th.

I will pray a prayer of healing tonight — that God will rest His hands on you and heal you. May our prayers of "passion" be heard from our Lord God and Savior, Jesus Christ.

We love you.

I believe you are referring to the Chaplet of Divine Mercy on the Divine Mercy Prayers album. I sing, "For the sake of His sorrowful PASSION..." and the responding voices say, "Have mercy on us and on the whole world." You can hear the clip on the website - Divine Mercy Prayers page - to determine if that is indeed what you heard. Glad you liked it. God bless you, D
