As I was trying
to decide on what I was going to write for the
blog this week, I
had the thought: What better subject to write on, than one of the things
that has affected me the most in my life, music. I am so thankful that
I have the opportunity to play music in many places, but most importantly,
in church.
When I first
began playing in the Praise Team, about a year and a half ago, I was
not as close to the Lord. I worried more about whether I was going to mess
up, instead of completely focusing on Him. During this past year, I
have grown so close to the Lord through music. I learned to feel
the music, and to be the song. Once I realized how God was speaking to
me through song, my focus quickly faded from the crowd, to my
Savior.
One of the songs
that affect me the most is, “Even So Come.” The powerful lyrics
state:
“Like a bride
waiting for her groom, we’ll be a church
Ready for you,
every heart longing for our king,
We sing, even so
come, Lord Jesus come”
Every time I
play/sing this song, new and different emotions flow through me. It
has such powerful words, and musicality. The song is a reminder that
even through all of our daily hardships/struggles of life, we need to always
be ready for Him, and live and worship everyday as if it were our last.
Blessings,
Madison
