Sunday School Songs – Asking Jesus into my Heart


I asked Jesus into my heart in the summer of 1972. I had spent years of trying to figure out, trying to reason why so many people sing and praise and celebrate Jesus – yet He was as exciting to me as an old, yellow, cracked newspaper.

THE CONGREGATION OF THE EMOTIONALLY DISTURBED



I am not a student of languages but I found myself thinking about the label, “emotionally disturbed,” tonight when I should have been asleep.

Now follow me on this – you can disagree but don’t let your right brain know that your left brain is thinking, “This chick doesn’t know what the heck she is talking about.” Please, pretty please just continue to think through my thin thread of thought (say THAT 10 times real fast!).

Now, my students, the word, “emotion” is based Latin words. The“e” comes from “eenside” and is the basis of today’s “in-basket.” The“mo” comes from “mooveit” -- the basis of today’s phrase, “get the lead out.” The “tion” comes from, well, “tion,” or “the action of” (today’s p...
