What a wonderful week! The time of singing, sharing, laughing, and talking has been outstanding. It is truly a blessing to enjoy the fellowship and building up of the people in the choir, but also the many wonderful believers we meet along the way. So many people are so gracious and welcoming, letting us stay in their homes and visit with them briefly. It is very encouraging.It has been such a tremendous blessing, and such a wonderful time of retreat, meditation, and growth over the past week. I'm so thankful for such talented musicians who realize we can believe the message we sing and at the same time perform to the utmost standard of excellence, through rigorous musical training, rehearsal, and education that brings great glory to a great God. I pray that this attitude endures at our seminary, so we do not put to waste the wonderful complexity, intracacy, wonder, magic, emotion, challenge, and effective, gospel-proclaiming gift that is music to its fullest realization that we as humans have discovered in God's magnificent Creation. May we seek to honor him through our discipline and devotion to the wonder of music that he has created for us to discover, to use, and with which to create praises to his name.
