While these posts are based on thoughts I've pondered over time about these songs, for these posts, I simply put on my headphones, listen to the song and write what comes to mind.

Pride of a Father - Hillsong Young and Free

When You see me, You see my heart, through the eyes of Your mercy, in the light of Your Son. You love me with open arms, and the pride of a father.

It's been a while. Lots of reasons for that, none worth writing about at this time.

Other than always finding new worship songs for me, I'm always looking for worship songs for Noah. I've always tried to take seriously guarding his mind and soul by at least somewhat limiting what he watches and listens to. It's not easy. And it will certainly not get any easier in the next few years. But it's also more important than ever. It's not enough to say no, you can't watch or listen to X. There has to be really good alternatives.

So I was really happy when I ran across the first song on this playlist - linked right over there in the sidebar. This is not the first song, but this is the one that I believe is a crucial message for young people right now. I love that this EP is done by young people. I know God has started a work in young people that's going to grow and spread and change the world - literally. He has not written off any generation, certainly not the young.

If you've got pre-teens and teens in the house, have them give the playlist a listen.
