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.
