Since being in Asia
the Lord has laid worship on my heart. To make it clear before I begin, worship is not just music and
singing. However, this blog is about
music and the heart God has given me. Now don’t get me wrong I know I don’t have the best voice, so you don’t
have to worry about me trying to get up on stage and lead a worship session,
but God has spoken to me about this over the last 3 months.
For many years I
compared myself to others during worship. I would never sing loud or from my heart because I wasn’t gifted with
singing. I would raise my hands when
others raised their hands so I seemed “holy” enough. I was a hypocrite!
Well God reminded me
over the course of these last 3 months that I don’t have to perform for anyone
but Him. He created me just as he
wants. He didn’t gift me with an amazing
singing voice, but I have a voice, and He loves my voice just as it is. So I will sing out the song on my heart in
worship to HIM. I don’t care if others
look at me because I’m singing loud because He is all that matters. I also don’t raise my hands because others
are or because that what I’m supposed to do, but because I’m surrendering to
God. My days of comparing my worship to
others is over. So while I might not
sound the best or I might seem a little crazy because I’m jumping around or
screaming it’s because I love the Lord and he has given me a heart of worship!
