The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow (From the Musical, Annie)

Hello Grafted In And On The Journey, Reader,


Wow, eighteen days since our last visit. Where does time go or how does it seem to go so quick?


Belated Happy Spring. Here, we are having snow flurries and mid thirty-degree temps today. I think we did reach sixty-three a few days ago, Fahrenheit.


Reading, writing, and viewing the Men's Basketball Tournament here in the USA are what have occupied much of my time. I also sold a couple copies of my latest book title at my piano gig to a Mike and Michelle 1-1/2 weeks ago. The sense of elation was grand!


I am starting a promotion on three of my four titles at Draft2Digital on Tues March 24, 2026; ending April 12, 2026. Its name, Passover Special.

At the site you may look under the link, my books, for all titles there.


To you who observe the occasions of Passover or Easter, may they be enriching experiences for you and self-renewing.


Have you come to visit me at My Substack?

Please do. There's room for yourself and a friend.

Until early April, may the sun truly come out and may the Lord continue to bless and keep us.


Mellow Rock,

My Worth Is Not In What I Own (Acoustic, The Gettys)

Hello Grafted In Readers, Over the weekend, My wife and I were listening to, Great Hymns of Faith, from UCB Canada. An acoustic song for which this post is titled was played and the words are worth pondering. The artists, Keith and Kristyn Getty have a pure sound, an acoustic/folk music type of blend. I jotted down the lyrics, but hope you will take this a step further and listen for yourself as the song is on YouTube. "My worth is not in what I own, not in the strength of flesh and bone. But at the costly warmth of love, at the cross. "My worth is not in skill or make, win or lose, pride or shape; but in the blood of Christ that flows, at the cross." Note, I did jot down the lyrics from the recording and that is what I'm sharing with you! Kevod Yeheveh, may we value YHVH and find him to be truly beyond worth and beyond measure! Mellow Roc

From My Red Chair (Mellow Rock)

Hello Grafted In Readers, Today is June 5, 2025 in my corner of blog land. For a few posts, we are going to touch on mental health. Basically, find wisdom from reputable places to help our own understanding of God-given mental health. I have a book that will be released in a few months of five short stories. Each has a situation related to mental health of the character or characters. Its title, From My Red Chair" the same as this 'mini-series.' Our first observation, today, is pasted from the National Institute of Mental Health, NIMH. Thankfully, this agency still exists! OBSERVATION Mental health includes emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It is more than the absence of a mental illness—it’s essential to your overall health and quality of life. Note: Hmm, mental health is more than the absence of mental illness. That's my takeaway from this snippet. If you'd like to share your takeaway from this, please comment. I will be back to share another obser...

Sussudio (Phil Collins, '80s hit)

Hello Grafted In Readers, Today is Monday August 4, 2025 in my corner of blog-land. Mild weather is are lot these summer days. Mostly sunny, too. I heard the Phil Collins song, Sussudio, played on a station from northern Michigan earlier today, UPS 98.5. Looking up the title, it is said to mean something and nothing at the same time; It is allusion to a girl that Phil Collins liked, or fantasy of loving an older woman, according to online info. I have a couple expletivies that are self-made but can only recall them when the mood is exactly right. One is 'gosh darnit'. Another is, O) sugarfoot. How is your self-made vocabulary list? Go ahead, share one or two in the comments. Until next time, God bless and keep us. Mellow Rock David C. Russell
