The Heart of Worship

Just last week I was on Pinterest and I saw this video of Kim Walker Smith talking about leading worship. After the video was done I clicked on the next video (below) which is about the heart of worship. I think that we as followers of Jesus Christ, need to know where our heart's are at. We may have the idea that our hearts are totally in Christ, but do our actions, and the way we present our selves toward the Lord really speak for us? Watch this video :)

And if you haven't heard this wonderful woman of Christ sing. Here you go! 

Movie Soundtracks!!!!!

I love movie soundtracks so much. I was watching a movie with my friends the other day and we were trying to imagine it without a soundtrack- super dull! You should try it next time you watch a movie. I honestly love to go onto iTunes and go to the soundtracks section. Music makes the movie one hundred times better. Some music is just so simple- that a first grader could probably figure it out, and that's what makes some of these composers so genius. It's the moment when you hear that music and it takes you back to the movie. So since you can't exactly ( no not at all) hear these wonderful soundtracks that I listen to. Here's some videos.

The Chronicles of Narnia Prince Caspian Original Movie Soundtrack by Harry Gregson Williams. Seriously- just skip to 3:29 when the violins start their amazingness- it gave me chills.

August Rush Original Sountrack by Mark Macina. Need I say more? The combination of the cello, the orchestra, the childs voice... stunning!

Loss of a Twin Eagle Eye Original Soundtrack by Brian Tyler. Very sad and emotional.

Kingdom Dance from Disney's movie Tangled. By Alan Menken. A wonderful Celtic dance tune. I love 1:15.

Dawn from Pride and Prejudice Original Soundtrack by Jean Yves-Thibaudet. Dreamy.

Night Time by Aaron Zigman & Alexandre Desplat. The whole movie just fits right into this theme song. It's wonderful and bouncy, but mysterious and magical all at once.

Dreamer Soundtrack (Suite) by John Debney. Okay, I know that this video is like 14 minutes long-but this is one of the most beautiful soundtracks I have ever heard. It just makes me think of a lovely horse farm, and pretty much everything beautiful that has to do with life, I hope you agree!

Inception Original Movie Soundtrack by Han Zimmer. This guy is a GENIUS!!!! So the movie is mind bloggling and now the soundtrack is too?! What?! Yeah I found this tidbit on The Pioneer Woman.com. You can read on her website more about her review on the movie too.

So that is all my friends. One of my favorite songs that I did not mention (most Honorable Mention) because I could not find video links, or links are: The Cider House Rules Sound Track- Theme from Cider House Rules by Rachel Portman. I have not seen the movie- but that one song always gets me. If you ever find any soundtracks that strike your fancy- I suggest that you please comment about them in the comments below or let me know :)  -Sharhaiah

Birthday Time:)

My birthday is in 2 days! Woop! I am so super excited! So since it is my birthday weekend, I thought I would share a few of my favorite things, items, songs, foods with you. Also I made a great mistake yesternight which ended up being awesome... I will share that with you in a tad bit. Well, I honestly think you should treat everyday like its your birthday, really things are so much more fun that way :) My favorite bible verse right now is Proverbs 31:25 "She is clothed in strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future." That's what I want to be- clothed in strength and dignity, and laughing at fear. I don't want to have to worry, but I want to have God fight my battles.
My favorite songs/singers right now are Gungor (songs: Vous Ete Mon Coure, Every Breath, and Let There Be Light), The Honey Trees ( song: cover on Moon River), Norah Jones ( song: Don't Know Why), Ingrid Michaelson (song: Sort Of, Lady in Spain) Taylor Swift and the Civil Wars (song: Safe and Sound), Audrey Assad ( song: Sparrow), Elevation Worship (song: For the Honor). There is alot more music that I like too, but right now these are my favorites :)

My favorite food is Italian, my favorite dessert is chocolate anything pretty much. Okay, now for my little mistake I made last night. So I was really having a hankering for something sweet, and I wanted peanut butter so I mixed up chocolate chips, white chocolate chips and peanut butter in a mug and then put it in the microwave for about 30 seconds, then I took a bannana and spread the peanut butter stuff all over it- gosh it was SO good. I know people put peanut butter on bannanas all the time, but I mean this is a little bit different.

My favorite kind of comfy shoe is TOMS shoes. Ok, so when TOMS first came out, I was like "Uh, who would wear those?!" And then I tried them and they are SO SUPER comfy!!! I pretty much lived all last summer in those shoes. Don't judge a shoe by its cover, haha.
Anyways, I hope you all have an amazing weekend!!!
