I’ve Never Felt So Close
"I've Never Felt So Close" was inspired by the story of a friend's real life encounter with the comforting words of Psalm 73:28...

When I Hear That Train

Thankfully, it roared by twice a day! If you're a Mom and if you live close enough to some railroad tracks to hear the sound of a passing train, perhaps the song posted here will inspire you to adopt my Mother's idea to use it as your reminder to pray for your family. Or, … [Read More...]
