I Like Knowing God the Best

Lately, I've been listening to some of the music that I listened to as a kid.  They were called the Candle tapes, particularly Bullfrogs and Butterflies is the one I've been listening to.  One of the songs called, I Like Knowing God the Best, talks about all of the fun things we get to do in life, but that the best thing is knowing God.  I couldn't help but think about how blessed I was as a child to grow up with this type of music ringing in my ears. (I'm not gonna lie, I did love the New Orleans and Boston too, thanks to Dad, but that's not relevant in the particular post. ;-))  Not only did I get to see great examples of following God through my parents and grandparents, but I was also filled with powerful words through song that reinforced my belief and faith.  I don't think parents always realize how much impact they truly have on their kids and how much what they choose to say, do or play (music I mean) makes a difference.  What we learn as kids really does stick with us.
