Mom & I went through a period of time during my late teens when we didn’t get along too well.

It’s All Good!

Posted by Lisa Hendey in Reviews on Saturday, November 08, 2008 12:15 PM

I am a huge Ceili Rain fan - I fell in love with them last year when I saw them perform live in Anaheim.  I love their Irish influenced tunes, their energy and their lyrics.  In today’s song, lead singer Bob Halligan Jr. recognizes God’s goodness in the events of his life.  If you have a chance, head over to the Ceili Rain website for more incredible music videos.  This particular song always reminds me to pause and to see God’s handiwork with appreciative eyes - He does good in my life every day! In this month where we contemplate thankfulness, for what blessings are you thankful to God today in your life?
