A Moment of Thankfulness

"But I will sing of Your strength; I will sing aloud of Your steadfast love in the morning. For you have been to me a fortress and a refuge in the day of my distress."
Psalm 59:16
What an amazing feeling it is sing. To lift your voice higher and sing praises to the One who gave you the breath to do so. It gives me so much joy. A joy that is indescribable in words. While leading worship is an amazing and humbling experience, it is difficult. It takes dedication, time, and patience. Last night was the first time I felt free. I let go and sang as if no one was listening, except the Lord. I wasn't worried about hitting my notes, singing the right words, or what I sounded like at all, I 100% let go. And for that, the Lord shined His love upon me. The words I was singing consumed me and I was overcome with happiness. So here I stand, thankful. Thankful to the One who allows me to lead worship. Thankful that His love never fails.

"Nothing can separate
Even if I ran away
Your love never fails

I know I still make mistakes
But You have new mercies for me everyday
Your love never fails

You stay the same through the ages
Your love never changes
There may be pain in the night
But joy comes in the morning

And when the oceans rage
I don't have to be afraid 
Because I know that You love me 
Your love never fails."
-Jesus Culture
