Day 20 of the Countdown to CHRISTmas-CHRISTmas Offering

December 20, 2011 by

Another debut video for the AoE countdown to CHRISTmas is Casting Crowns with CHRISTmas Offering.

I bring an offering of worship to my King.  I thought about these words.  As we juggle the crowds at the mall and the hustle and bustle of the holday season, we need to stop not only to thank the Lord for the gift that Jesus has given us, but also to offer ourselves as a gift to Him.  To worship and to allow Him to do with us what He wills.



We are winding down the countdown to CHRISTmas this year.  Tomorrow is another in just a few more until we celebrate the most precious gift we have ever received: the free gift of salvation in Christ Jesus.

Day 19 of the Countdown to CHRISTmas-Hope of the Broken World

December 19, 2011 by

Making it’s debut appearance this year.  This isn’t really a CHRISTmas song, but it’s one of my favorites from the group Selah.  It’s called Hope of the Broken World and it speaks of why Jesus was born to die for us.  Jesus is salvation, the joy of the earth and the hope of the broken world.

The Glory of the Lord is risen on Resurrecton Sunday which we will celebrate in a few months, but first Jesus was born into the the world to be the hope of our salvation.

I’ll have another great video to help us count down the days til CHRISTmas, the celebration of Jesus’ birth to be the hope of the broken world.  Until then…

Day 18 of the Countdown to CHRISTmas-CHRISTmas Dreams

December 18, 2011 by

Making it’s first appearance here on the AoE video countdown to CHRISTmas is this very spiritual version of Carol of the Bells.

It’s by 2002 Music and from the album CHRISTmas Dreams.

The thing that struck me about this video is the snow.  It’s shown in many forms, all beautful. It reminds me about how different each snowflake is and how different each person is.  When it shows the entire world, it reminds me that Christ died not only for me or for those who love Him, but for all of mankind.

Still more to come. Until tomorrow…

Day 17 of the Countdown to CHRISTmas-Picture Pefect CHRISTmas Cannon

December 17, 2011 by

The countdown continues today with another great one from the Trans Siberian Orchestra: CHRISTmas Cannon Rock!  A slightly different verson than another in the countdown.  This one has some beautful CHRISTmas scenes to share.  These scenes are as if out of a picture book.

I love this video.  Looking at it makes me think of peaceful times.  It fills my heart with the beauty that the Lord created and I love to envision a life filled with peace and beauty.

We all strive for that Picture Perfect CHRISTmas and often fall quite short.  Sometimes we don’t acheive it because of circumstances beyond our control.  Other times, the fact that we race around in a frenzy to complete the tasks that would create our Picture Perfect CHRISTmas ruins our chances to enjoy it.

You may have noticed that not all of our experiences will be this perfect here on earth because this is a fallen world we live in.   Your life may not be picture perfect and you may even be going through some difficult times. This can be especially difficult at CHRISTmastime, but, each day of our lives, we can remember that Jesus was born and died for us so that one day we can be with God where everything WILL be picture perfect.

More to come tomorrow. Until then…

December 16, 2011 by

It’s time again for Friday Funnies and one of my favorite CHRISTmas medleys is from Straight No Chaser.  This is an all male a capella group with an amazing sense of humor.

Yes some of these are not CHRISTmas songs, but you will be giggling all the while!  Making their fifth appearance here at the Art of Eloquence Video Countdown to CHRISTmas…12 Days of CHRISTmas…

Day 15 of the Countdown to CHRISTmas-Oh Holy Night

December 15, 2011 by

Celine Dion’s version of O Holy Night has been on the AoE countdown for the entire five years.  Her voice is simply incredible and this version is my favorite.

Some people are blessed with some talent and others are drenched in it.  What a treasure that they share it with us!

If you know someone with an incredible talent for something who is sharing it with you this CHRISTmas, make sure you thank them and God for bringing it to you.

Day 14 of the Countdown to CHRISTmas-Carol of the Bells

December 14, 2011 by

For the third or fourth year here on the AoE Countdown to CHRISTmas is an instrumental version (piano) of Carol of The Bells by George Winston.  I love the scenes depicted in the video and his version of this song is simply gorgeous.

I could listen to this for hours.  I love the way it changes throughout the piece and comes round again.  It’s a more creative version than I’ve heard.

We all need to slow down about this time of year, just about ten days out from CHRISTmas to listen to the sounds of CHRISTMas and remember the beauty of what Jesus did.

I’ll have another great video tomorrow.  Until then…

Day 13 of the Countdown to CHRISTmas-Hallelujah Chorus

December 13, 2011 by

This video is making its second appearance here at the countdown.  I was introduced to this last year and just had to put it in.  Can you imagine being at a mall and having this incredible scene unfold?

This is the Opera Company of Philidelphia signing Hallelujah in one of their Random Acts of Culture.  Take a look at the faces of those in the “audience.”

Enjoy!

Day 12 of the Countdown to CHRISTmas-Amazing Grace Laser Show

December 12, 2011 by

Another excellent version of Amazing Grace in a rock laser show!  I’m saving my favorite version of Amazing Grace for CHRISTmas Day, but this one is a wonderful rock version with a fabulous light display.

How many versions there are of some of these songs!  Each one is a different interpretation.  Just like us!  Each one of us sees things slightly differently and has a slightly different testimony and story to tell about our walk with God.  Isn’t that wonderful?  Each song minsters to a different mood just as each person can minister to a different lost soul.

What an amazing way for God to help us to share with others about Him!

Another wonderful video coming your way tomorrow.  Until then…

Day 11 of the Countdown to CHRISTmas-Hallelujia

December 11, 2011 by

Next on the countdown is Barlow Girl with Hallelujia (Light Has Come).  The song asks us to praise to God on high, hallelujia a savoir comes for us!  To save us now.  Hallelujia light has come!

A promise for those who believe.  Do you believe?

If you’ve been listening to these beautiful songs, but you don’t believe in Jesus, now would be a great time to find out what He is all about.  Jesus gave up His heavenly home to come to earth and be tortured and die for us.  He rose again and He is saving a place for you and me…if we only believe.
