Music Monday

It has nice alliteration so why not. This first music monday will be spent talking about worship. And I realize I've talked about worship a thousand times in this space, but it's a really big deal to me and I love worshiping Jesus with some jams. I sat around with some pretty amazing girls last night and we talked about the ways that we get alone with God. I have to admit that the whole "being quiet" and just sitting still is hard for me. I almost always have my ipod in or I like playing my guitar when I'm having time with Him. As we talked about being alone with God, I kind of thought that "worship" is a great thing as far as talking to Him and just being still. There's nothing else going on, except a song that's playing with words that tell about how GREAT He is anyway. I know that worship can be focused on TOO much and that people get all weird about how its done, but the fact that we get to use the talent of playing instruments and our voices to praise Him really loudly, I think that's a lot of cool. Music is good. God is really good.
