I attended a concert this evening of sacred and secular music. It was performed by a local chamber choir, at our church. I wish I could turn back time and 'magic' everyone along to hear them because they were wonderful! They all have beautiful voices that blend perfectly and their singing is sublime. Several times, I was moved to tears. The only thing that almost spoilt it for me was that I could feel envy creeping up on me. I sing, but not terribly well; put me with a bunch of others and I sound passable. Tonight, I was envious of their talent for a bit, until I thought: this is their gift; they've been blessed with wonderful voices so that others can sit back and appreciate their music. I think, perhaps, that any talents I have lie in other areas which aren't quite so artistic but, hopefully, they will be appreciated for what they are.
Anyway, I just thought I'd share that with the Forum. Don't get me wrong, I still wish I could sing like them but I'm glad that God has blessed me with good hearing so I can listen and enjoy! Blessed are the music makers!

In Good Voice
In Prison chapel last night, we all sang Give me Oil in my Lamp and the "Sing Hosannas" nearly set the alarms off. You shoulda heard it - man it wasn't pretty but it was BIG!
