    You are such a joy. I have been a RUclips junkie for a few years now especially interested in makeup. I just had your channel pop up this past week. I’m so excited, but disappointed that you have had your channel for so long and I’m just now finding it. So , I have been binge watching you this week and I just needed to let you know how much I enjoy watching you. I have gained some new tips and tricks. I’m about to turn 61, and have always loved makeup. Other women don’t understand why I’m always made up. I don’t understand why they’re not. Lol. I live in Austin, Tx. from Dallas, and Dallas girls are all about makeup and fashion. I’m amazed how you find the time to do all that you do. Thank you for being so humble to share your world with the rest of the world.

    Beautiful playing!! Thank you for taking the time to share your life with us. You are such a lovely person. I grew up in a small church where we sang out of the old tattered hymnals. We had about 50 or so members. I moved away to live where my husband grew up and now we go to church of over 4,000. I desperately miss my old home church. I miss hymns! If we do happen to sing a hymn at church I can't help but tear up. They are so meaningful. ♥️

    Oh my, I’ve tears in my eyes as I just finished watching this wonderful video and you’re beautiful playing of, How Great Thou Art! Knowing Jesus as Savior, I felt you were honoring Him in your videos, you did (do) that without saying a word. ❤️ While I somehow missed the Q and A...I’m so happy to get to know you better, Sharalee! Your husband, your church sounds wonderful! My husband is a pastors son, and I’ve been saved since age 9, and so I understand serving in a church, know that I will be praying for you, as you continue to come alongside your husband, and minister to your people. I would fit right into your congregation, one of your “young people!” Ha ha. My love to you, as always!

    You are beauty, brains, and talent all wrapped up in a genuinely sweet package. I thank God everyday that I came across your RUclips channel months ago! You brighten my day with that stunning smile and your ever-precious attitude! I grew up on classical music too - played the violin and took private lessons for many, many years. I was first chair all through junior and senior high school. My mother was the pianist in the family and she would accompany me - many wonderful hours of playing duets together. I still own 2 violins, but haven't played in years! Thank you so much for this video so we could get to know you better. I adore you, my friend!

    It is clear that Christ is at the centre of Your Life....& through Him You are Empowered to do what You Do....I can just imagine how many times that Kindness has touched so many hearts & especially within Your Fellowship! But No Doubt You have had to remind Yourself to BE KIND to Yourself First....because people can be so very mean....Praise the Lord for His Kindness & Love....
    I didn’t see or read about the Q & A either but I’m not on Fb.....Thank You for branching out & sharing some areas of Your Wonderful Busy Life....I look forward to many more vid’s....Blessings & Love Marc. 😘❤️❤️❤️😘

    Glad to know you better with these Q&A. I had a sense you were walking with God. Maybe your smile, your love of life and people, your generosity. Then I heard you play piano and your choices of music... What a blessing you are. My daughter is a hairdresser, but she's become to anxious to cut my hair but was an expert doing my colouring. She's got the eye for it but since I no longer colour my hair, well I found someone near home. I'm not difficult, but like you I always want to change something. In the last 63 years, I have changed some many times haircuts, hair colors you would not believe it 🤣. For the last three years I have dark brown, grey and white hair which I cannot wait to have more of. I love my natural hair. I sent my current hairdresser a photo of your pixie (set of threes) and cannot wait to have it short again. God bless you!. Love from 🇨🇦 😁!

    You are right.

    Your musical journey parallels mine so closely! I started piano at age 6. Grandma was a church organist, and Grandpa was a minister, so I spent a lot of time with both of them as well as at my own church with my parents. I was a church musician for my entire life until about the last five years, when worship was led by a worship team and the piano and organ disappeared. Kind of sad, but the Lord has reminded me that life is about seasons and that it's not about me and my preferences. My church is amazing and growing by leaps and bounds ... especially young families and lots of babies! Loved hearing your story, and I'm still wavering on going super-short with my hair (which has always been short).

    This was such a refreshing video! I almost feel I know you! So much of your life parallels so much of our family’s lives! The infertility struggle, the music, ministry, so much I could share but don’t want to bore you! Ha! I had so much respect for Promise Keepers! What a wonderful ministry! My husband never went - but for anyone involved in ministry at the time, we all kept up with it, praying for all of you! We spent 10 years working with Jimmy Swaggart Ministries in Baton Rouge. My husband, a software engineer and programmer, was a manager in the IT Department and I worked in music promotions - a job I sooo loved! I sang in the choir and did some solo work in the church when the main team was on crusade. It was a time of maturing in the Lord - very fast paced like you said! We consider it a pivotal time in our lives!
    I’m sorry! I wasn’t going to talk so much! But I look forward to each and every one of your videos! And one day I WILL take that plunge and get a pixie like yours! I love it!

What I love about you so much is, that you recognise that this outstanding talent is given to you by God. Many people believe there is no God and everything occurred by accident. I can only say to them: open your eyes! Everything in our daily life is build by someone - no house ever popped up after a million years by itself. But the one who created everything is God (Hebrew 3 Verses 4). You are a wonderful person, keep up your gift and share it with all of us!

    I feel so blessed to have found your channel! You are a woman of great depth and substance, and your gentle spirit makes me feel that if we lived close by, we would be great friends for sure!! I am a school principal by day, but have been the Minister of Music at my church since 2003, as well. Music has always been my “therapy” and I have been singing sacred music all my life, so when I heard you play How Great Thou Art, my soul just sang along! You are amazing and I look forward to your videos every week! God bless ❤️

    I wish there was a “LOVE” button! You are just as sweet and beautiful inside and out as you come across on your videos. I always love every video I watch that you have. As a 68 year old with the same hair style as you (with much thinner hair) I have learned so much from you. AND THEN! You play what I’ve always said is my “go to” song when I am needing comfort! I listen to Carrie Underwood sing it. Chills!! Thank you and God bless you for this video!

    Your video has touched my heart. You are truly inspirational. I too attend a very small church (in rural Alabama). I am the church organist but lack your beautiful talent. God has richly blessed you. As I watched your hands glide over the keyboard I sat at my computer simply enraptured. Your sheet music was way above my skills; between the key changes those 32d note runs, wow, I got chills!!! Or as I friend of mine calls them "glory bumps". How Great Thou Art is one of my favorite hymns and your rendition was powerful! May the ministry you and your husband serve continue to be blessed. Thank you for allowing a peak into your life, watching it I felt as if I'd made a new friend.

    That is so sweet to curl your grandma’s hair. I was the same no make up allowed in parochial school until eighth grade. Not even in high school prohibited by my mother. I tried in college but wasn’t so good even in college.
    I love short hair. I think it makes anyone look younger

    You are such a breath of fresh air & a wonderful blessing! Your church family is so blessed to have you as their pastor's wife! Wanted to pass along what I hope can be helpful with some piano playing techniques. My son has played since birth, lol🤭 No, actually since a keyboard was placed in front of him at 4, but formal lessons since 5. He's almost 19 & is in his 2nd semester at MBU for music education! He came upon Natalie Raynes who is a RUclipsr also & gives lessons via Skype or video chat. She is AMAZING!!!! Dylan has learned so many great things watching her! She is a sweet sister in the Lord who has been given a tremendous gift!
    How Great Thou Art is one of my absolute favorite hymns! Beautiful playing & thanks for sharing! God bless you & your husband in your ministry! Xx💝

    I only discovered your videos a few days ago and have already watched five of them. ❣️ I love your method of application and beautiful results, especially on the church members you had as models. (I am now a card-carrying member of the Hooded Eye Club! LOL) You seem to have been perfectly tailored for the role of pastor's wife, and I wish your church was not two thousand miles away, because I am betting that I would love attending it. Thank you for sharing your beautiful music with your viewers as well. I am excited to watch more of your wonderful and informative videos! ❣️

    When you played, How Great Thou Art, it reminded me of this verse...

I find myself watching your videos more and more- - I came acros this one and you are so kindI I just had my hair cut the one like the video with your hairdresser and I just love the haircut itself- also the undercut part as that is where I would get a "bedhead" and with this is does not seem to do that.
    You are very talented and have so many interests! We ladies need all the help we can get! I am 74 years old and like all you do for us. You are very beautiful and your personality make for a wonderful video Thank you and God Bless!

    How Great Thou Art! ~Amen! My Dad & Husband’s fav hymn. My husband sings so I can hear his voice as you play. I’m also in tears because my husband is only 60 & has inherited heart disease & kidney disease. One Dr told me he would never see 60. God sent the one surgeon into our lives my husband needed. My husband is shortly turning 61! Now we need a kidney donor, but so far we’ve been met with closed doors. I don’t know why I just shared all this. I guess I want you to know how moving & powerful music can be. Keep playing! God bless you!
