READ: Psalm 94:16-23

In the multitude of my anxieties within me, Your comforts delight my soul. —Psalm 94:19

Hudson Taylor (1832-1905) was  the founder of the China Inland Mission and a great servant of God. But after the ferocious Boxer Rebellion of 1900, in which hundreds of his fellow missionaries were killed, Taylor was emotionally devastated and his health began to fail. Nearing the end of life’s journey, he wrote, “I am so weak that I cannot work. I cannot read my Bible; I cannot even pray. I can only lie still in God’s arms like a child and trust.”

Have you been passing through a time when you are tired of body and sick of heart? Do you find it difficult to focus your mind on biblical promises? Has it become hard for you to pray? Don’t write yourself off as a spiritual castaway. You are joining a host of God’s people who have experienced the dark night of the soul.

When we endure such times, all we can do—indeed, all we need do—is lie still like a child in the arms of our heavenly Father. Words aren’t necessary. A comforting father doesn’t expect his child to make speeches. Neither does God. He knows we need His soothing care. In times of trouble, His mercy holds us up (Psalm 94:18). We may trust Him to carry us through that dark night of the soul and on into the dawning light. —Vernon C Grounds

Under His wings I am safely abiding,
Though the night deepens and tempests are wild;
Still I can trust Him; I know He will keep me,
He has redeemed me, and I am His child.  —Cushing

When we have nothing left but God, we’ll find that God is enough.

I used to have a "Footloose" cassette tape in my walkman....
Okay, I'm old.

Never owned "Purple Rain". Didn't own "Top Gun", but it had about 4 good songs on it.

Broadway cast albums are a different matter. I could list some if anyone's interested.

Hmmmm, I think I'll be reading this thread and saying, "Ooh, yeah, I like that one. Ooh, yeah, I like that." Most movies I can think of had one or two good songs on the soundtrack, but not a great soundtrack. Unless you're going back to movie musicals (which brings us back to Broadway anyway.)

Beauty and the Beast and the Little Mermaid got the most play in the car over the years. And then there was the trip to Lancaster in the driving rain, while listening to:

"And the rain, rain, rain
came down, down, down,
in rushing, rising, rivlets,
when the river crept out of it bed
and crept right into Piglet's!

[Tanniker Smith]

I thought of one: "Honeymoon in Vegas". Great album. Except that three years later when I finally saw the movie, I don't think I heard a single one of those songs played.
