It’s one of those days.  Cloudy outside and inside.  I’ve been reflecting about where I’ve come from and how far I’ve come.  I’m sure God thinks I’ve come farther than I do.  He’s good like that.

I was remembering years ago, when my husband and I were pastoring a church and doing all the “stuff” that is expected of you – from people – I was at a place inside that wanted more.  I love music and how it speaks to me.  All types of music speaks to me.  There was a new type of worship music coming out of California and other places that was welcomed by the church at large.  But after a while I was discontent with it.  Seemed like the same words in a different style.

Don’t misunderstand me, the songs were amazing and full of truthful words.  They touched my heart in many ways.  But I wanted more.

Well, the Lord led me to a conference in North Carolina and a man came on the stage to lead in worship.  I lost it.  Sounds and words came from his heart in a way that I could relate.  He changed my life that day.  I’ve never been the same.  .. Most don’t understand the music I’m touched by.  Some do.  A few like – hearted people that have come into my life over the years.  And I know there are more that will cross my path.

I am so thankful to Jesus for meeting me years ago and continues to speak to me in music and creativity.

Enjoy!
