I need to get this into a reading for my church. This is exactly what worship IS and what it is not! I love this and man you are hitting the heart of my hearts and the flesh is trembling! You are after the Lord with EVERYTHING! Abandoned to His Holiness and unafraid to shout that you are unworthy and He is ALL. I am in tears as I read this rejoicing at the power of God seen thru your eyes. What a blessing! Thank you brothers and thanks for this site! Open and Honest hearts seeking to find ways to Love God just Love Him for all that we can and do have. Wow! I need to get this into a reading for my church.

I have been pondering many of the same issues with participating in a worship team. I am continually challenged with our call to holiness. Check Eph. 5 and Romans 6 along with Hebrews 12:14. I think the evangelical church (and it's worship leaders/teams) should really do frequent self-examination to see if their motives are correct as well as guarding against the encroachment of things like a performance mentality and anything that would deter us from the passionate pursuit of God's holiness. As mortal, frail husks on this side of eternity, we wrestle with things like God's infinite love, mercy and grace. Live for that day! Rock and and jam for the Lamb. Dean Fantastic blog.
