music. and life.

so i guess i haven't been keeping up my end of the bargin since i haven't been blogging. although i'm not be inundated with emails, so apparently i'm not breaking anyone's heart :)

i once heard this talk from Keith Johnson on the "music of the Gospel". he talks about how we sometimes mimic others who hear the music of the Gospel. he gives the example of someone who is dancing, listening to headphones and how another person can mimic the dance moves, even if they aren't hearing the music. Keith challenges his listeners to not just mimic, but really hear the music and so dance.

today i read this blog from ajposts.com "Science and Psalms" and it reminded me again of how much i need to continue to listen to the music.

so i am encouraged to be in colorado learning about leadership and spiritual development, but i'm also excited to take some time to listen to the music. to rest. to sabbath.

Nifer!! I'm so happy you have a blog! I'm excited to keep up on your life and leave you silly comments. : D

Hope you've been well! Seems like you have been so praise God!

And it's interesting that you would post this - lately at church I've been really, REALLY trying to listen and take in every word that is sung - really sing it directly to Jesus and not worry about anything else around me...or if my pitch is crazy off. : )

Have a wonderful 4th!
