Approaching God
It used to bother me that the closer I drew to God in my walk with Him, the more sinful I felt. Then a phenomenon I observed in my room enlightened me. A tiny gap in the curtain covering my window threw a ray of light into the room. As I looked, I saw particles of dirt drifting in the beam. Without the ray of light, the room seemed clean, but the light revealed the dirty particles.
What I observed shed light on my spiritual life. The closer I approach the Lord of light, the clearer I see myself. When the light of Christ shines in the darkness of our lives, it exposes our sinnot to discourage us, but to humble us to trust in Him. We cant depend on our own righteousness, since we are sinners and fall short of Gods standards (Rom. 3:23). When we are proud, the light reveals our heart and we cry as Isaiah did, Woe to me! . . . For I am a man of unclean lips, . . . and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty (Isa. 6:5 niv).
God is absolutely perfect in every way. Approaching Him calls for humility and childlike trust, not self-importance and pride. For it is by grace that He draws us to Himself. It is good for us that we feel unworthy as we draw closer to God, for it humbles us to rely on Him alone.
Holy, Holy, Holy! Though the darkness hide Thee,
Though the eyes of sinful man Thy glory may not see;
Only Thou art holythere is none beside Thee,
Perfect in power, in love and purity. Heber
There is no room for pride when we walk with God.
: This passage recounts the call of Isaiah to a long and difficult prophetic ministry spanning the reigns of four kings (740681 bc). Isaiah was not the only one in Scripture who viewed himself as too sinful to be in Gods presence (6:5). Peter, when called to be an apostle, cried out, Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord! (Luke 5:8). The tax collector in Luke 18:13 demonstrated a similar humility and recognition of personal sin.

#100 Billy Joel: Uptown GirlI was watching MTV on a Friday night in a moderately stoned condition when I heard the opening of this song. I sat up straight, thinking the Four Seasons were back. Then I saw it was Billy Joel. I never thought I would live long enough to hear a current artist do an imitation Four Seasons tune as satire.
This song is far more sophisticated than anything the Crewe-Gaudio or Linzer-Randall teams wrote for the Jersey Boys. It starts in E Major, drops to C Major, then A Major before returning to E. Schubert would have linked the key structure of this song.

#9 Cyndi Lauper: Girls Just Want to Have FunSix sharps or six flats? Technically, theyre the same thing. Thanks to computers, you can write a song in the simpler key signatures of F Major or G Major and have the machine transpose the keyboard track. The octave leap in the chorus sells it.
This video, which was one of the most imaginative of the era, owes a lot to the Marx Brothers at the end.
