Wow! Today, we didn't play. We didn't sing. We let GOD speak to us, and thru us. It was not about us AT ALL. Normally during prayer times, I'm hooking up, unhooking, adjusting, switching guitars, etc. , but not today. Today during prayer, I actually prayed. It was like we were in church, and not at work. Very special thanks to my buddy John Howland for leading such a wonderful service with music and prayer. We sounded like a band again. ( Usually we sound like an orchestra. Admittedly, a rock orchestra, but a loosely assembled bunch of volunteers that clearly show we don't do this for a living ). Heck, we even played a new song, and with a minor mistake during the first set, we still managed to get the message across, and all stay together. I was really really cool. Yes, I know it's not about us, it's not about cool, it's not about feelings, but: If we felt so good about doing the same ol' thing, how do you think the crowd took it?
One comment was: " That's the best it has ever been"
13 in unison when the trumpeters and the singers were to make themselves heard with one voice to praise and to glorify the LORD, and when they lifted up their voice (A)accompanied by trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and when they praised the LORD saying, "(B)He indeed is good for His loving kindness is everlasting," ( II Chronicles 5:13 NASB )
Give God all the credit!
