A life packed full of mindless joy

sing again, sing again, with quiet eyes

tell me a secret...

Its at times like these that we really open, you are asked to be honest, as if you have not been honest up to this point. you can look me in the eyes, and when i tell you that very secret, that one that I hold so close, that one thing that less then a handfull of people know, you can look me in the eyes, and honestly smile and say

"Im glad you didnt"

what do I need? I need to be everything to someone else
I need to be everything to my friends
I need to seek there hapiness first
I need to push away every selfish desire, every wicked thought
I need to give in
fall
keep falling
Commit to you Lord, the one thing I have been waiting for
All my songs, all my stories, have come from you, and they are about you, about your love, about your grace.
I am an example of the goodness that you can bring out of filth.

I took this from a the coment section of worship.blogspot.com
"Being a worship leader isn't meant to be a hobby or a way of fulfilling my musical aspirations. It's an opportunity to proclaim that I'm a great sinner who's been redeemed by a great Savior and to invite others to celebrate that reality."

for so long I have said "Ill just play at church, and I will be happy, playing once a week, I dont need a band" I could never have been more wrong, I desire to play music so much, to feel that emotional highs and lows... but when it comes to worship... could I have been any more selfish? who do I think I am? do I really hold my self at such a high esteem that I tell God that I will serve one day a week, in an area that I choose, and be fullfilled by that?

are you serious Jon?

who am I?

I am nothing without my creator.

Bob Kauflin said "If you don't feel adequate for the task, you're in the perfect place for God to use you."

right now, I am perfect for whatever GOD wants me to do, not what I want to do

show me the way.
