No place like home

I used to love going away for a trip. To visit relatives or just to get a break from the norm. Strangely, these days I love to be at home. If I get a minute spare I want to be at home. If I had the choice to visit the place of my dreams .... I'd choose home. I sound like a right old soppy pants I know. So what's made the difference...... simple. Not only my wonderful wife, but also our fantastic little man, Jack. I often sit and think about his mum and how very proud she would be of what a marvellous boy he's become. Every night he says goodnight to her and he gets so excited when he sees a star blinking back down at him. I secretly think he enjoys the autumn and winter because he gets to see the stars more often.

Monday was a special day. 18 years since Tamara and I tied the knot. I haven't regretted a day. I remember how much I loved her on the day we were married and I never would have guessed that I could continue to love her more and more. She is so much part of me I can't even function without her. I only hope she understands just how much I love her.

So getting back to no place like home. It's obvious why I prefer to be home because home is where my two wonderful people are. Home is our haven. Everytime I think of Steph my heart cries but it also is so very grateful that she gave me and Tamar the opportunity to care for and love her son.

I could travel the world but I only want to be here with my two special people. Here at home.

New Song - You Are There

I'm excited to annouce the unveiling of my latest recording. The song is called You Are There and has been described as a worship song by others. It represents quite a change in more than one area of my life.

First, it represents a new journey on my knowledge of recording techniques. Without going into boring detail I managed to utilize specialist features of a programme called Magix to create what I think is the best quality recording I've done to date.

Second, it has helped me to realise that sometimes it's good to wait instead of being so impatient. The song was birthed back in September/October and I've been picking at since then. Fotunatel I have a wonderful and patient wife who allowed me the space and time to complete the recording during the Christmas Holidays.

Finally, it marks a change in attitude, once again, regarding my faith and how I share it. I'm still not going to drum my beliefs into everybodys ears, but I'm not going to shy away from the fact that I am overjoyed to proclaim that I believe Jesus has rescued me from the sting of death. Every part of my life has been mapped out for me and I sometimes can't quite believe how every step is so wonderfully choreographed through thick and thin. Even to the point where the rough times have prepared me for each next step. It's easy to say this as I walk in a time of bounty, but right now I see a purpose for my life as a servant of God.

I hope you enjoy the song as much as I've enjoyed making it.

Many blessings
Steve

Music Specialist Status at William Lovell CofE School

Since beginning my new job at William Lovell Church of England School Stickney Lincolnshire I haven't the opportunity to stand still. Shortly after beginning the job I discovered that we were seeking specialist status in music. As the head of music this clearly meant an awful lot to me both as a challenge and an opportunity for the school. I can now confirm that we have been successful in our bid, praise God. As a church school there was a huge amount of prayer went into this project and now we seek to find Gods will through it all, especially with the need to appoint a new member to the department. I pray that God will bring us a candidate who is not only a skilled music teacher, but also has a heart for worship and a desire to share Gods world with our students, many of whom are unbelievers.

God is so good.

New website

Having successfully moved my webhost to twoedgemedia I am pleased to announce that I'm pretty close to a total revamp on my website. Some of you may have seen the red version for a short which I struggled with to set up the template. Finally I decided enough is enough and decided to adopt a template from free css templates. My thanks go to Robin and Helen of Living Hope to drawing my attention to these templates. Check out their website too locustmusic
I truly hope you enjoy the new website and welcome any suggestions you may have.
