It's been awhile

For the longest time, I’ve had a passion for music. To watch musicians play their instruments with such knowledge and talent is so amazing to me. I get chills when I hear someone sing their heart out. It’s such a blessing to be surrounded by beautiful voices. It’s awesome to have people with such a passion for God and for the songs they sing unto Him in His honor. I love music. I love playing the guitar and the piano and the drums when I get the chance. For awhile I have been feeling an urge in my spirit to serve Him through music. I want to so bad. I know I need to get better and I am not very confident in the skill level I am at. I would love to honor Him through song. Through my day my spirits remain lifted if I have a song in my heart. No matter how bad I feel, almost every time, if I start singing in worship to God I just feel so much better. Or even if I just let some music play on my computer, it calms my nerves and makes me smile through whatever is ailing me. Today I woke up, not feeling so great because of a certain situation, which I won’t get into, but I was yanked from that when my friend (Sister) Olga suddenly gave me about a 10 minute warning to get ready for church. See, church starts at 4:00 PM, and it was 9:20 AM, so I thought it was okay that I was just lounging around in my PJ’s. I had no idea that we were going to another church that morning. We were going to Sis. Olga’s husband (Bro. Steve’s) dad’s church. Bro. Steve’s dad had a stroke not too long ago so Sis Olga and Bro. Steve help him out a lot. This was my first time visiting this church so I had no idea what awaited me there. The church is made up of about 15 people, more or less. When we went in, (Pastor) Bro. De La Torre’s wife, Sis. Mary asked Olga and I if we knew any new songs. I just thought she wanted us to show them to her. But noooo, next thing I know, I have a mic in my hand and Sis. Olga and I are singing one of my favorite worship songs. It was so awesome to have that opportunity to worship God like that. It was an amazing experience for me because really, I love to sing! And it was just such a blessing to be able to sing a song that I love, in His house, for Him and His people. We sang the rest of the songs for the service and had an awesome time in the Lord. Hehe. Praise God.

Away, away from the noise
Alone with you
Away, away to hear your voice
To meet with you
Nothing else matters
My one desire is…

To worship you I live, to worship you I live, I live to worship you.
OhhhOhhOhOhhh

Away, away from the noise
Alone with you
Away, away to hear your voice
To meet with you
It’s been awhile
But hear my heart cry again:

To worship you I live, to worship you I live, I live to worship you.
OhhhOhhOhOhhh
