I LOVE singing.
I LOVE dancing. I LOVE
WORSHIP!!!
One of my most favorite thing is to sing as loud as I can
while worshiping the Lord, especially with other people. I can remember in college, a friend of
mine refused to sit right next to me during any worship jam because I am so
loud. I don’t have the best voice
but at least I can stay in key.
Being a music person growing up, I know a little about being in key and
keeping the beat. That’s what
makes music good….right? A
collection of notes with in the same key range put with a good beat makes it a
song that sounds good. They seem
to be perfectly in order. I used
to have a hard time hearing other people sing out of key. I never understood why they could NEVER
could get it right.
Just recently I have become one of those people. Someone who never sings in key and
never stays on beat. Its like I open
my mouth to sing but it comes out not quite how I planned…..and yet….its
ok. In fact it is more FREEING! I don’t care what it sounds like and its
EVEN better when it doesn’t fit in the same pitch range. My dancing has gotten WAY off
beat. My voice has gotten more
powerful and more beautiful because it is coming from somewhere deeper than
ever before. I am in a place of
deliverance. The Lord thinks my voice is more beautiful NOW out of key than it
EVER has been in key. I am shedding a performance mindset!!
I am finally finding my TRUE voice.
