Music is great. I love all different kinds of music. From progressive rock to classic, except Pagode, a Brazilian invention that should have never existed… Anyway… This last Sunday the guys from the Remedy Band led worship upstairs and it was AWESOME! It’s funny how if we surrender our difficulties to God, He comes to our rescue in no time! On Thursday, during practice, a lot of things went wrong. Some of the guys were not focused, our drummer didn’t show up because his sister was in the hospital and, in the end, we didn’t get nothing done as it should. So we went home, resumed our lives and when Sunday morning came we went through the songs one more time. This time everything worked out right. The guys were focused and excited, even though it was 8AM and everything went smoothly. We had to drop one of our songs though because the kids we just not paying attention anymore, however, I am 100% sure that God was pleased with what those guys accomplished. And I know that we couldn’t have done it without Him.
Thursday we had better equipment, more time and more people, still we only managed to get things done when we focused on God and realized that we weren’t doing this for the kids or for anyone to see, but to God. This happened so many times before when I was in my church’s worship team. We would practice and it would sound awful, but when the time came, it was wonderful. I am sure it was a way for God to constantly remind us of our dependence on Him.
Well, that’s all for now. See you next time!
