Demo #7 – “The One” (Message Song)

Posted by on Jun 27, 2007

My writing journeys have intersected a few times with The Message Bible translation, and it’s been a fun combination!

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-D6c40WzpSI]So, John and I are at the top of Nevada Falls a few weeks ago, and I just had to hold my camera over the cliff. This fall was RAGING at full flood…the thunder of it was booming…it was a jaw-dropping site. This is just one of the thousands of ways God likes to show off!
