I was made to be a worship leader. That is my purpose in life. It took me a while to realize it, but now that I know...I really know. And I was made to serve alongside my husband. Eron is also called to be a worship leader. Fancy that! We should get married! He is so good at getting a crowd pumped for Christ. He is also awesome at making people feel really comfortable in their expression during praise and worship...i.e. raising their hands, kneeling, dancing, shouting praise. I feel so honored to serve with him, but I also feel BLESSED beyond belief that I get to serve with the Rocky Mount Praise Team. (We are currently waiting for God to deliver a name for our band...so Rocky Mount Praise Team will have to do for now.) The praise team not only consists of members that have quickly become incredible friends, but I feel that I have bonded with them in a way that I have never bonded with anyone else in my life. It's like we are all beads on the same string. We have experienced God together...and that has bound us very tightly together. I have come to the point where I am realizing that I would do anything for this band, these people, and God. Acts 20:24 is quickly becoming the song that is constantly in my heart...
"I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me - the task of testifying to the gospel of God's grace."
I am determined to step up to the call God has placed on my life. I believe that our band can be used, if we stay humble, to lead thousands in experiencing the presence of the Holy Spirit. I am willing to forsake all material things to see that this happens. If I have to only eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches or sale my house, I'll do it. If it means that I can "finish the race and complete the task", I'm in. God might never call us to do any of that. But I know one thing, the light at the end of my tunnel is being a part of worship team that serves all around the world.
This past Saturday night, we led a youth Disciple Now at Providence Baptist church. We have another youth conference to play at on Friday. I am almost losing sleep I am so excited!!! God is awesome. And that's an understatement.
This is our band at Providence Baptist Church leading their Disciple Now service.
