hello blog world!

Laying in bed last night thinking about what a good release a blog could be. Maybe no one will look at it but me or maybe a hundred people will look at it, either way here i am.

Learning some new songs on the guitar, trying to be a rockstar in my own mind i guess. There's my far-fetched dream- don't think it's ever going to go away. In LOVE with bethany dillon's songs "all i need" and "the kingdom" and playing around with addison road's "hope now" as well. My dogs always leave the room when i start playing..should i take the hint?
I played in church a little bit for a while, but no matter how much i practiced at home and how GREAT i thought it sounded, when i got up in front of everyone i felt shaky and sweaty- doesn't make for beautiful sounds that's for sure. I wish i could just pick up the guitar and be amazing, but not many things work like that i guess. My dad is my guitar hero- he'd laugh if he saw that.
I thought if my heart was pure in my desire to praise God with music that the second i strummed a chord it'd be like magic- i know, i know it's a beautiful noise to Him. I think thats all it is tho... noise.
Anyway, i'm not feeling bad for myself. I'll go on blissfully ignorant in my lack of skills forever and ever amen.

  1. I enjoy what you do. I believe you play wonderfully and if you continue to praise God with the talant he's given, "He who is faithful with little I will give much". Keep singing. I still get nervous. I don't know if that ever goes away. Just thank God and remember it is Him you are singing to.
