*************************************************
A NEW YEAR
*************************************************
There is something nice about starting a ‘New Year.’
It’s a good time to ‘turn a new page’ in your life.
What would you like to change? How can we be more
like Christ? How can we be more thankful?
I posted a blog on ‘Goals for the New Year.’

*************************************************
The contest ends at midnight, Jan 9th, PST. Thanks

*************************************************
FROM YOU
*************************************************
I got this precious email from Wendy Young in
South Africa.

“Jean, my 8 year old has watched the DVD all day
and mastered the first lesson. He was particularly
touched with the “getting in tune with God” puppet
skit at the end and has asked me to write out the
prayer for him as he says he needs help to stop
doing “naughty” things.

Thank you for this tool to use in my home,
I pray God blesses you and your ministry
Wendy”

Don’t you just love the heart of this young boy?
The Worship Guitar Class for Kids program ends
with a gospel invitation through a puppet skit.

Doreen is an accomplished organist/pianist. She
writes:

“Learning to play guitar has been such a blessing.
It got me singing and worshiping every day at home.
It’s really helped me draw nearer to the Lord.

You are a gifted teacher and your newsletters, tips
and videos have helped so much. I’m praising the
Lord for the gift He’s given us all through you.

With sincere appreciation,
Doreen”

I LOVED reading that she’s singing and worshipping
every day at home! Our God saved us to be in
relationship with HIM. How pleased He must be
when we make Him central in our lives!

*************************************************
RELAX
*************************************************
Yeas ago I went to a Master’s Class where the
teacher listened to each student, then had them play
their pieces again with a more relaxed face.

The results were amazing. Music in an expression
of your inner soul and when the excess tension is
gone, the music can come out more freely.

Relaxing your face helps you to relax your shoulders,
which helps your to relax your hands. You do need
energy for each pluck or strum, but the hands should be
relaxed between each pluck, strum or chord change.

*************************************************
IN CLOSING
*************************************************
We are God’s ‘instruments.’ He has a wonderful song
to sing through our lives. I love this quote from
Beth Moore, “When we trust our lives to the unseen
but ever-present God, He will write our lives into
His story and every last one of them will be a great
read. With a grand ending.”

Worship Him with all of you heart, because He
loves you with all of His!

God Bless,
Jean Welles
