God is in it...

Wow! I haven't been very faithful at writing here have I? Sorry everyone. I will try and make a better effort to post my thoughts and events on more occasions.

Today is just one such occasion....

This past Sunday was another one of those moments in life that God really reveals Himself to you. You know those times? Well, my band SoulFlight played at my church during the morning worship service. It was the first time we've ever been there for a morning service and everyone was present (the band, wives, some friends/supporters, etc). Wouldn't you know but God had the whole thing planned. This week's message was on several topics that we as a whole group (band members and all) have been dealing with lately and it became blatantly clear why we were all there together. We weren't there just to play and lead worship for the congregation (although that was a side benefit we enjoyed) but we were there for God to speak to us, clear our minds, and get us all back on the same page so we can keep doing this ministry we call SoulFlight. It was indeed an eye opener from God showing us just how much He cares about us and wants us to focus on serving Him. It was also a confirmation that He is in what we are doing and wants us to keep doing it.

I'm sure it won't come as a shock when I say that I drove home Sunday afternoon on a spiritual high, singing a new song God started giving me within minutes out of the church parking lot! I'm finishing it up so I can take it to a future practice and begin laying down the music with my band mates and I'm looking forward to seeing what else is in store for this Fall. If this past Sunday was any indication, I will have quite a bit to post here before the first snow flies....

God bless! I'll catch you all next time!

i love when God breaks through and we 'get' Him!

I think that everything's gotta be just lined up right in order for us to pay attention -- I think God is always wanting to do those breakthroughs. . its just us - we're often just not able to take it in.

I would have to agree Kat. It's "us" that hinders communication with God. We need to learn how to listen better.
