Some of my History – Probably TMI

Well, most of the people who actually read my blog probably won’t know most of this – and probably won’t care either.  But, that’s okay.  If you don’t want to know – don’t read.

I’ve been struggling with trying to come up with subjects to post on – since this blog isn’t neccessarily devoted to a specific topic like most blogs are – and I really do want to keep it going (don’t ask me why – I have no idea).  So, here goes a little bit.

I’ve always loved music – always wanted to sing and play an instrument.  Took piano lessons for years when I was a kid – was never particularly good at it, but tried anyway.  I played the organ at church for a number of years and loved that.  After I surrendered my life to Jesus and became a Christian I decided I wanted to play the guitar.  My sweet husand gave me one for Christmas and I took lessons.  Was never very good at that either, but I loved playing and leading “sing-a-longs”.  We were pretty active in some of the “home groups” and I loved leading Praise and Worship at those.

We were also involved in an “outdoor ministry” a long time ago.  I still have a case of cassette tapes that have the accompanment music that one an sing along with.  No idea if they even make those anymore, but I used quite few of them.

I was blessed to sing on the Praise & Worship team in several churches as we moved around and for awhile after we finally settled in Alabama.

I loved it all and always felt blessed that I could Praise God with music.  Sadly as I have aged, I’ve lost my voice.  It’s just gone.  I still love the music and still love praising God with it – you just don’t want to hear me these days.
