Roy has played with him at several appearances. Chase has appeared at the Ohio Valley Opry several times too. He is a favorite there. That is where Roy plays in the staff band.

Mine...until some dumb kid picked it. :(
The plant has since died. Our drought was just too much for it.
I want another one when we get water again.

Me too. He’s a good Christian boy too. I wouldn’t be watching AI if he was not there. I’m hoping his good looks will get the young girl votes. He’s a good singer. Low voice.

Fresh And Flourishing
February 24, 2012
In Psalm 92, the poet begins with a commendation of praise: “It is good to give thanks to the Lord.” Good for what? Good for you and me. It does our soul a world of good to turn from anxious thoughts and fill our days with prayerful praise; good to greet each morning with songs of thanksgiving, for such praise makes us glad. It lifts us out of gloom and replaces our sadness with cheerful songs at the “works of [His] hands” (v.4). And what is that work? The work He is doing in us!
Here’s one of my most cherished metaphors: “The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree, he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Those who are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God. They shall still bear fruit in old age; they shall be fresh and flourishing” (vv.12-14).
Palms are symbols of towering beauty and cedars of unbending strength. These are the characteristics of those who have been “planted in the house of the Lord” (v.13). Their roots go down into the soil of God’s unquenchable love.
Do you think your usefulness to God is over? Continue in God’s Word, rooted and grounded in Christ, drinking in His love and faithfulness. Then, no matter your age, you will bear fruit and be “fresh and flourishing.”
From your heart give God your praise For His blessings all your days; Lift your voice to God above— God of mercy, God of love. —Hess
Praise comes naturally when you count your blessings.
Read: Psalm 92

I seldom watch AI; I watched it few times when Billie would mention someone she liked. Maybe someone will remind me next week.
Roy is still in my prayers; how is he doing?

Another great ODB message, Mayor.
When we turn our hearts and minds toward Him we can't help but praise and worship Him.
Have a Blessed weekend.
