This morning was very tiring for me for some odd reason. Usually I am very pumped to be with kids, and I was for the first half of the morning, but after I lead worship for 4th and 5th grade this morning with Ty Callahan I wanted to faint.
I taught the kids two new songs, and it was kind of frustrating for me.
I felt like I was screaming.
Ty said he thought it was sad that he could barley hear the kids, 40 of them.
I don't know if it was because the song was new, or if it was because I was scaring them.
I asked the kids this question though...
"If the king of England asked you to sing a song, and to sing it loud you would wouldn't you?"
and they replied...
"YEAH!!!!!!"
really really loud.
And then I challenged them...
"Then how much more would you sing for God, who you love???"
I don't know, I am still trying to figure these kids out.
Sometimes I feel like I am found to be more entertaining than anything.
I don't mean to be, I just want the kids to get excited.
Sometimes I feel like Thomas Edison when it comes to leading worship.
But at least I am finding a million ways to NOT lead worship.
It's okay.
If I don't step out in faith, if I don't get my feet get dirty, if I don't ever try, I will never know.
God is teaching me a lot.
I am grateful.
I just want people to love God because they love Him, not because they feel forced to.
So I can only live by example.
Be contagious.
Salty pretzel.
No wonder why Jesus says we are salt and light.
Tons of Flavor Lord.
I want people to see that living for you is tastey, delicious, flavorable pretzels.
okay, that was a little cheesy.
But whatever I don't care. I work with kids.
