Sometimes in worship ministry you wonder, does it make a difference. Of course you can’t live there, because you do it for the glory of God. But these stories are good because they tell us God is at work.

This is from one of our singers in our Reimagine Fall 2004 band that led worship a month ago or so:

“The story that I shared with you came from my Vantage Point dinner home fellowship a couple of weeks ago which included…. The story goes that… brother has had a very rough life (I don’t know the details) but has recently been working at doing better and is currently living with … and …. He has not been a church goer for a very long time, but .. and .. have been inviting him to come.

Well, he happened to decide to come for the first time on that Sunday that we did Reimagine, and he came home beaming and told them that he had heard that song “At the Foot of the Cross” and it was the most beautiful song he had ever heard before, so much that it brought him nearly to tears. And apparently, he has been much more interested in and willing to coming back to church again. It just goes to show how God can use anyone – even a bunch of new guys who hadn’t even know most of the songs or eachother a month before, to further his kingdom and reach the lost lambs.

I had found myself nervous that Sunday since it had been so long since I had sung in front of others, but that all reassured me that it is not about me anyway. It’s all about putting ourselves out there (even if it’s a little scary) so that God can use us as He sees fit!
