This night has been an exercise in futility!! I love to sing to the Lord. When I am singing I feel the closest to Him! I have few gifts but I do believe God has blessed me with a pretty good voice. I was asked to sing a song this Sunday. YAY! I had the perfect song in mind. Every time I sing it I feel good all over. If I was a doggie I would wag my tail. It makes me that happy! I had the chords (thanks Jennie and Jeremy). I had one of the most gifted Pianist in Texas to accompany me. I had the absolute BEST sound man running the mikes. I could not get on track with the music the pianist had. She could not get on track with the chords I brought. We wrestled with it and remolded it and went back and forth over and over it. Until my voice began to sound like Kermit the frog. I was so frustrated I felt tears well up in my eyes. I wanted to throw a baby bawl fit! Then it hit me I had everything I wanted and needed for this to work except I forgot to ask God what would bless him! What he wanted to hear from me. Instead I decided based on what I wanted to sing. So oops rewind. I came home and began to look through the music available to me. I called this precious woman who is willing to put up with me and still accompany me and emailed her the songs. And now I will pray about it and get some sleep.
God bless and keep you,
Ms. Jill

Thank you both. Practice this morning was amazing!! I am always impressed by how much easier things are when you follow God's lead instead of trying to go my own way! =)
