Musical "Life Jacket"

Lately now, finding myself correctly in relationship with the Lord, (having been ignoring Him prior) I wake and the first one to greet me. is He.
We have a give and take, sometimes about serious things, sometimes there are laughs, depending on His agenda of course, but fellowship would be the word. After all that was one of the reasons He became man.
Then I like to read the Bible, but some mornings the first thing I do is put the radio on. Some might say, "Oh no! reading the Bible is the only way to start the day" It is the best I agree, but there are times that it is harder then the radio.
Like if you are homeless sleeping in a tent in the woods, in Feburary, and the tempeture outside is 10 degrees at 4am. You don't want to be moving around much, and there is no light to read by. So the radio is a comfort. Music in general is a comfort. "Medicine to the soul"
I write this to say that, and that during those hard times of my homelessness, the song playing often was "Traveling Light" by Hanson and Groves. It was a "life jacket" during that storm of life.
