Beside Still Waters Ministries

One of my favorite singers is Steven Curtis Chapman – so many of his songs have encouraged and inspired me, and when I’ve seen him in concert (and even got to meet him once at 95.5 The Fish local Christian radio station) it shows very clearly how much he loves Jesus and wants to share his faith with others.  All day today I am listening to his CD’s, and I can’t help but to think that God prepared him for this when He gave the inspiration for songs like ”With Hope”, “Speechless”, “God Is God”, “Be Still And Know”, and “All Things New”.

There are many places on the internet that tell about the devastating accident that killed his youngest daughter, Maria, last night. I can’t even imagine what that family is going through right now, and I am lifting them up in prayer that they be comforted and held in the Father’s loving arms, and not forget the hope that they have that they will see her again.  If you would like to leave a short prayer for them you can at the page set up by the Chapman’s in Maria’s Memory here, and at Ragamuffin Soul’s blog here.
