Singing barefoot

During the music in church, a few days after we found out about Chris' cancer, I was staring straight ahead trying not to cry in front of the boys.  I noticed the worship leader was barefoot and thought, "That's weird.  I wonder why he doesn't wear shoes?  I guess he must sing better barefoot."  Then it occurred to me that that's exactly what I'm going to do.  My family needs me to be strong right now in a way that terrifies me.  And I'm not supposed to just survive this.  The Lord has a song for me to sing.  And I'm going to do what I have to do to sing it.  I'm going to sing barefoot.




* Seriously, there's no telling what you're going to find over here.  It'll probably be awkward, emotional and embarrassing.

  2. It's not imitating Christ, but union with Him that makes the difference. I know you will sing a glorious song of His might, His Goodness, and His Mercies which are new every morning. Am praying for you and loving you from afar! Libba
