Stumbled across this via AM. Beautiful, Soliloquy. Aptly stated and full of truth. I love it. Kelly @ Love Wells last blog post..At least it's easy to clean.

That is a lovely post!

How often I get distracted by all the irrelevant stuff during worship. I get distracted by the lights, the sound, the praise team…

All God requires is that we make a joyful noise. UNTO HIM.

Thank you.

Yes, this was a beautiful and touching post! We have a young man with cerebral palsy who sits on the front row of our church and worships in such an expressive, innocent manner, that most Sundays, I am simply overwhelmed. His awkward, large worship is a fragrant offering to God and a needed reminder to the rest of us: It doesn’t matter what we look like or how well we do it, God inhabits the praise of his people.

This is my first post. I have been lerking for a while. Hello.

The post from today was lovely. My husband and I have been blessed with our own Debra (a.k.a. Alison) and often times when she begins to sing on Sunday mornings I notice people around her (including me and my husband) tearing up. Her pure heart and out of tune singing are overwhelmingly beautiful. God is indeed good.

Oh so true. I have a good friend that’s a special needs teacher and she has told me that a wonderful thing about those with special needs is that they are not ashamed to express their love of Jesus publicly. I never thought of it that way before. God truly has a special purpose for each and every person.

This post is forcing me to de-lurk. You expressed this so beautifully, and painted the perfect picture of what worship is all about. Your blog is fantastic, and always makes me laugh. I was reading when you had your previous blog….then you moved and I had no idea where you went…fortunately I found you again via WFMW,and this is one of my first bloggy stops of the day. So…thanks!

this post makes me sooo jealous. Hubby and I have been church-searching ever since we moved to this town, and we’ve sampled many, but haven’t found what you have. And I *can* sing, which is one of the requirements — a good music team — for me. Now that the kids are getting older it’s becoming more and more important to settle in somewhere… I will make that my goal.

Hi,

This make me take a deep breath and sigh.

How true that in trying to worship God we somehow get lost and end up elevating self.

I am guilty too often.

I don’t have the voice of a worship leader, I sing with simple tune, trying to stay focused on Jesus, BUT my mind wanders, my eyes roam the room, distraction keeps me from true worship.

Oh Lord, forgive me and help me to worship you in Spirit and in Truth. Thank you for Debra, bless her and keep her Lord, focused on You. Let her life shine before men that they may give you the glory.

Nice to meet you sister!
