The one with the thanks
I thank God for:
1) My beautiful and understanding wife. Not too many women would put up with a husband who takes forever to decide what it is he'd like to do, but Cathy has supported every decision I've made with Godly love and patience. I pray she be superblessed for everything she's done.
2) My intelligent and effervescent baby boy. Nathan won't stop talking, running, and laughing. Sure, he's getting to that age where he's starting to get picky with his food, and his personality's rapidly building up towards breaking point, but I wouldn't have it any other way. My son is healthy, good-looking, and a joy whichever way you put it.
3) My church. No matter which way you look at it, this church loves me in Christ-centered fashion. When my dad died, they visited and even helped out a little financially. God's love made tangible and manifest. Praise God for them.
4) Music. My music and the music made by musicians across the world keeps me sane.
5) Potential jobs. No announcements until everything is final, but God has sent ways and means to keep my family afloat until I launch everything intended to bring glory to His name.
God, You're so good to me. Thank you so much. Thanks for loving me. Thanks for sending Your Son to die on that cross for me. Thank you for never leaving my side, even if I've been such an a**. Grabeh, Lord, thank You.

The one where Carrie does it
With her debut at #1 with Inside Your Heaven, Carrie Underwood becomes the third American Idol season winner to enter the Billboard Hot 100 at #1. The other two were initial season champ Kelly Clarkson (A Moment Like This) and third season winner Fantasia Barrino (Believe). The only hiccup? Velvet soul teddy bear and season two winner Ruben Studdard could only manage a #2 entry with Flying Without Wings, when Clay Aiken pipped him to debut at #1 with This Is The Night.
As Fred Bronson points out in his online version of Chart Beat, a record will most likely be set next week, when Underwood's runner-up, Bo Bice, releases his version of Inside Your Heaven. Most likely, Bice will debut at #1, making it the first time since the Hot 100 was introduced in 1958, that a song was replaced at #1 by the same song, albeit a different version by a different artist. How exciting!
Meanwhile, one of my current worship tracks, Miracle by John David Webster, is #12 with a bullet on the Christian Singles chart. Give this track a listen, it's awesome.

The one that thanks God for Michael
I saved up enough money to purchase myself the following:
Michael W. Smith's Healing Rain
I have found music helps me in too many ways, and Mr. Smith has seen me through troubled times. In 2004, I had the immense pleasure of interviewing Ms. Nicole C. Mullen for LIVEtheLIFE, and she is every bit as authentic and Christ-centered as her music shows. One day (oh, one day!) I will interview Michael, my ultimate favorite CCM male singer of all time!, and that will be awesome.
Thank God for music that glorifies Him, and thank God for Michael W. Smith. God rocks my world through him.
