~ Saturday Night Jukebox ~ A Tribute To American Musicians Black History Month Tribute |
~ Welcome To The FReeper Canteen's Music Dedication ~ Today the Canteen proudly salutes another group of great Americans -- black musicians! In tribute to Black History Month, we would like to highlight some of the pioneers, legends, and musicians that have contributed to the American musical talent pool. Click on the graphic or hyperlink. Black musicians have offered a wide range of musical talent to our American society. While the hip hop/rap scene today reflects very little of this contribution, the rich tradition is there. You just have to know where to look. Many of the artists will be familiar to you, but some may be lesser known. Click and see what's there! If you would like to request music, please do so on the thread, via FReepmail, or email us at musicrequests@canteenusa.com . All music will be removed on Monday. No exceptions. If you're caught hotlinking to our Dedication, we will ban your ISP. Thank you! As always, this Canteen Music Dedication is for our Troops, Veterans, and their families to enjoy. Its merely a way to offer a little entertainment to our brave heroes and their families. If you would like to be added to the Canteen Music ping list, please FReepmail MoJo2001 or Kathy In Alaska. Thank you! |

Serving With Limitations
My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness. 2 Corinthians 12:9
When he was not yet 4 years old, Itzhak Perlman was stricken by polio, making him unable to use his legs. But he compensated for that loss by devoting himself to his violin. In the years that followed, he delighted multitudes of people with his music. He lost the use of his legs but his music gave him wings. What an inspiring example of devotion!
Some of God's servants have shown a similar devotion to their Lord. They have suffered the loss of certain abilities but have been inspired to develop other capacities for service. For example, when William Booth, the founder of the Salvation Army, discovered that he was going blind, he did not surrender to despair. With a positive outlook, he told his colleagues that he had served Christ while he could see, and he would do his utmost to serve Him even when blind.
What motivates Christians to keep on serving and following Jesus to the best of their ability despite loss or hardship? Like Abraham, we live by faith. We look beyond this life and wait "for the city . . . whose builder and maker is God" (Hebrews 11:10). It's "a better . . . heavenly country" (v.16).
May the Holy Spirit empower us to glorify Christno matter what our limitations. Vernon Grounds
Give me, Savior, a purpose deep,
In joy or sorrow Thy trust to keep;
And so through trouble, care, and strife,
Glorify Thee in my daily life. Bell
Circumstances that imprison us cannot limit God's work through us.

Good evening Mayor!
Thank you for the wonderful Hot Chocolate and daily words of wisdom. I try reading them to tomkow, but he never listens. I figure when lightning strikes him, he'll know God wants his attention ASAP.

What? No James and Bobby Purify? (Just kidding -- any selection that includes Bull Moose Jackson and Lester Young is fine by me.)
