Tonight was the Caedmon’s Call concert. It was absolutely amazing! Talk about a wonderful, inspirational, an uplifting time of worship. It was a lot of fun. They opened with Hope To Carry On, and performed favorites like 40 Acres, Walk With Me (which is one of my favorite songs from Back Home), This World, and Lead Of Love. They even did a cover of Paul Simon’s Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes. One of my favorites of the evening was the title song from their new album, Share The Well — in introducing the song, they shared a little bit about their time in India, Ecuador, and Brazil and told the story of the well and the call that we have as Christians to go out into the world and share the gospel with people that are thirsty for the Word. Cliff Young shared the importance of getting involved in church, something that has been hitting me hard lately and challenging me in my walk. All in all, it was a good time. After an amazing altar call led by Pastor Ray Bentley, Caedmon’s closed the concert with Hands Of The Potter, a very rhythmic and upbeat tune and another favorite of mine.
Being able to worship tonight was an amazing experience … and I’m going to try and attend Wednesday night services at Maranatha more often. It was just such a good feeling coming in on Wednesday night, being able to enjoy some good music but also to be uplifted and challenged. I do have to admit, however, I was a little disappointed earlier today. Lately, it seems like all my friends have different priorities and agendas. And these priorities and agendas don’t seem to include me. That’s all right with me, since I’m used to doing stuff on my own. I would like to be able to share time with friends like I used to. Everyone seemed to have somewhere else to be … and I understand that. There is nothing wrong with that. But sitting there tonight, despite the fact that I had a good time, I really wish I could’ve shared that with someone else. I met some nice people there which was nice … but the whole time, I must have thought about at least a dozen people I would’ve liked to be there with me. Just a little sad, I suppose.
Well, since it is so late, I think I’m going to wrap this up. There is about a million thoughts floating through my head all wanting to get out at the same time. I do want to share what has been going on in my heart and in my head lately, so when I have time I’ll do that.
