Last month I had an astounding discover in my time with the LORD. my friends were going out of town and I was sceduled to watch their kids - with lots of alone time in the morning till 2:30pm. when i got out there i thought, "what am i gonna do for 2 days w/o my guitar?" well the next day the kids went off to school and i suddenly notice A PIANOOOO! hahahah. not to mention it was IN tune! and the acustics in the house were ammmaaazing - i had like reverb and everything going on. well i sat down and just began to toodle around and singing random things to the LORD- that's what i do most the time w/my music. it's become a ministry to the LORD. well, i started to get these words and sang them for a while: I am made to worship you; LORD I am made to worship you.
as time pasted more words came to me and i began to have tears rolling down my face. i felt the LORD's presence so densely and heavily that i was overwhelmed.
In that moment i felt the LORD speak to me and say, "this is why i've made you this way- your personality and gifting in music!....this is your job in my kingdom...to play to me and worship...your worship of me will flow out to others and lead them to worship me too..."
the LORD gave me a song to ministr to ME! wow i was so shocked. normally songs are not that
way- i felt like God wrote me a song to reveal HIS heart to me about me! WOWOWOOW
ha and when i thought i was going to hang out w/some kids God had really planned to write me a song and minister to me as i worshiped Him.
worship is our whole life. everything we say and do devoted to God. as paul said and "whatever you do, do it heartily as to the LORD!" that is worship explained from romans 12:2....talk about offering your body as a living sacrifice.
God enlarged that verse for me and showed me how my worship of Him is played out, in a special way, through music and my prayer life... this makes everything that i do more fruitful.
David was right...there are pleasure forever more at His right hand.
I don't care if live another day or do another thing in this life- hey i'm satisfied. nothing could even come close to the times i've had with the LORD and i pray that if i am not going to make much of HIM then could He please take me home now...
what a wonderful Savior. He is the great King over all the earth! lets bow down cause we are made to worship...awe-struck...
