Thanks for the prayers

I passed!!!! Yep, I had to get at least a 50 and I got a 53. That's two college courses I don't have to take!!

A big thanks to those who took time to say a little prayer.

Now, I can concentrate on other things like reading for pleasure or actually picking up a guitar. For the last month or so the only time I have picked up my guitar has been on Sunday's to lead worship. I guess you could say I am in a rut or maybe a new season. For the first time in a very long time I have been wondering what life would be like if I didn't make music. I am not saying I am throwing in the towel, but the thought has actually passed through my mind lately. I am sure the itch to write will come soon. The craft of songwriting seems to be a part of me. I do believe I write to stay sane. The cool thing is that sometimes this expression turns out to be the very thing that prevents other people from going down that same road toward insanity. I don't pretend to know how it works or that I am the only one that makes it so. All I have done is take notice. I write the songs, but I do not make them move. Someone much wiser than me takes the notes and words and does much more with them than they can do on their own. Music moves us not because it is music, but because it is given. It is in its very core nature a gift that requires like all gifts a repsonse whether it be sadness or joy or tears.

How did I get here? Till soon.
