Tonight was the end of a long year of choir activities. We've had some good times and we had some low times. Tonight was exceptionally good. And exhausting. I can't speak much for the overall quality of the music but from where I was sitting I know it was one of those memories I will look back on for a while.
It's like what Jared said. It's great that so many people came and that they responded so well, but there was something going on tonight and whether people showed up or not, we had no option but to cry out in worship. Not because it was scheduled and it was our job but because He is so worthy.
But it's great that people came. To see so many upturned faces and raised hands and people dancing - and being a part of that... To surrender as a single blade of grass in a field to move as the wind cuts among them.
Praise You was such a fitting name for the concert.
Praise the LORD.
Praise God in his sanctuary;
praise him in his mighty heavens.
Praise him for his acts of power;
praise him for his surpassing greatness.
Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet,
praise him with the harp and lyre,
praise him with tambourine and dancing,
praise him with the strings and flute,
praise him with the clash of cymbals,
praise him with resounding cymbals.
Let everything that has breath praise the LORD.
Praise the LORD.
Ps. 150

Hmm... I tried leaving you a message here yesterday but I guess it didn't go? Just wanted to say that I think it's awesome you're there for your sister (so many people don't know how to handle these big diagnoses--it's so hard!)and I hope she's doing as well as can be expected. Take care and see you around!
