Just a few hours ago was the last K-Life of the 2007-2008 school year. I cannot believe that I have been in Windermere for over four months already. All the leaders with K-Life have been such an awesome community of people to do life with.
Tonight I had the opportunity to lead worship with a full band. I was so excited as I was planning for the evening. One of the girls who helps out with K-Life sang Lead Me To The Cross and I was pumped to doing for the first time since I have been here. We were in a new room, so I had no idea what to expect. The sound system was over an hour late, but practice went pretty good with all things considered. It was impossible to hear anything in that room though. I was singing while praying that the right notes were coming out.
We just about to walk up to play and I was sharing something that I remember Francis Chan sharing. He was taking about worrying about ministry and he said something like…when you blame yourself when things go bad then you will give yourself the glory when things going well.
We started of the night with a song…it went way better then I expected. We were going to end the night with worship. When I walked on stage the power to the tuner pedal my acoustic guitar was plugged into was gone. I fiddled with some cables as one of the K-Life board members was sharing and I thought I got. Well it turns out that something one of the direct boxes shorted out and for the last four song all that could really be herd was the drums and our vocals. It was definitely one of the most unexpended messed up worship sets I think I have ever lead. But the crazy thing is that the Holy Spirit showed up in a way that it didn’t matter what we sounded like. We got to commune with the Creator of the Universe tonight. I wouldn’t trade the frustration of the evening for anything.
