Oldiesmann: I'm not aware of any Jenny. Not sure why activity has died down on this site so much though 2023-06-12, 00:06:36

JennyW: Also, does anyone know other photo sharing sites that are Christian? 2023-05-16, 08:47:03

JennyW: Hello Everyone! I really miss activity on this site. I've been discouraged by photography sites where you have to sort through so much explicit content in order to see photos that truly glorify God. I'd love to see this site pick up again. 2023-05-16, 08:46:36

One of my favorite songs

This is one of my favorite songs.  It really helped me when my father passed away, and then when mom went to be with him.  It's southern gospel by the Spencers. Far Side Banks of Jordan.

FAR SIDE BANKS OF JORDAN
http://www.heartsongs.org/RAM/BanksOfJordan.ram

1. I believe my steps are growing wearier each day
Still I've got a journey on my mind.
The hurts of this old world have ceased to make me want to stay
But my one regret is leaving you behind.

2. If it proves to be His will that I am first to go
And somehow I've a feeling it will be.
When it comes your time to travel, likewise don't feel lost
For I will be the first one that you see.

CHORUS:

And I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan.
I'll be waiting drawing pictures in the sand.
And when I see you coming, I will rise up with a shout
And come running through the shallow waters reaching for your hand.

3. In this life we labored hard to earn our meager fare
It's brought us trembling hands and failing eyes.
I'll just rest here on the shore and turn my eyes away
Until you come and we'll see Paradise.

CHORUS:
Choose you this day who you will serve; As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. Joshua 24:15

Isa 41:10     Fear thou not; for I [am] with thee: be not dismayed; for I [am] thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

I love southern gospel ... but I've never heard this particular song

I understand how it could be a comfort for you when your father, and then your mother, passed away.

God bless you ... every day.
Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass .... it's about learning to dance in the rain!
