To my dear viewers! So sorry for the awful audio quality on this livestream. I had issues getting it to connect with YT in the first place, and my computer didn't let me know in advance that I was having "issues" with my audio. And since I wasn't streaming live until this last song, I didn't have any of YOU in the chat to let me know it was cutting out whenever I played the music. I'm going to be tweaking and learning.... Please keep me in prayer. It seemed like everything was finally WORKING yesterday, LOL.... Back to the drawing board I guess. Regardless, I press on as we all do, trusting the Lord to lead. Thank you for desiring to watch this in the first place. BTW, as I said in a reply to Marshall's comment, since I sadly don't have any salvageable video from yesterday, I am going to be putting my efforts into getting a new video out of my "Blossom" song that I sang in last month's livestream, so be watching for that... God bless you all, and thanks so much for your prayers. This is all WAY above my pay grade, and I'm grateful that my true "pay" is being stored up in heaven by the One who is at the helm.🙌

Blessings, Lisa. A spirited rendition of this old standard, your cup running over with endearing emotions. Unfortunately what came out on my computer on your youtube channel was a really bad audio. The talking sounded fair. But on the tech end of the music - not good(for example) from 2:35-2:40 you cut out altogether. Many parts were raspy and sounded like there were pickup issues on both vocals and guitar. Not to take anything away from your delivery which was excellent. I listened to this at 8:40 after I got in from planting some of my garden. The "teaser" with one verse of Blossom, was really clear as a bell, but I assume from a different video/day? as you had on different clothes. Liked the slower tempo, it made all of the beautiful imagery ring a little clearer. I don't know if it is just the season, but I listen to that tune every morning around 5 when I get up. I think I have it memorized at this point. I don't know if I mentioned it before, but the trio of female vocals at the end of "Tree of Life" (all you?) "Healing in its leaves" line from (from Rev.22) is another stroke of musical genius. As, of course, is Blossom. I have never heard a Christian song that wraps in verbal imagery from Eden so gracefully and sensually. You are blessed with talents. And the Master will be pleased with what he has vested in you and your return on his investment.

Thank you SO MUCH for your gracious words, Marshall! And sadly yes the audio yesterday had issues (as did I in getting it to go up live in the first place). I'll try to put up a separate comment about that. Thanks for your words about Blossom, and I'm so thrilled with how the Lord is blessing your heart with it each morning. Please keep me in prayer today, as I'm going to shift my focus (since yesterday's stream is sadly not salvageable) to putting out a video of Blossom from my last live stream (what you were seeing in the intro video). Lord willing, I'm planning to take YOUR recommendation about putting it out with pictures from the garden. Now the biggest challenge will be choosing which pictures to include! They're all such beautiful images of His handiwork. I pray that your heart will be blessed, as well as many others. He is so gracious to work in and through us, even with all our failures, foibles and frustrations... He is good, all the time; all the time, God is good! God bless you, my friend.

A quick update, Marshall, that if you haven't seen it yet, I did put up the "Blossom" video today, and I hope you enjoy all the pics from my garden:). Also, forgot to reply to the part of your comment above, that yes, all the vocals at the end of Tree of Life are sung by yours truly... Some sweet time "singing in the Spirit". God bless you, and thanks again for your encouragement!
