I cry out to God Most
High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. Psalm
57:2
Being so passionate about music, people often ask me why I never
pursued a career in the industry. For
one, I can barely hold a tune. Not to
mention, I can’t read music and I am simply not proficient at playing an
instrument. I was a DJ at one time on an
FM radio station I Alabama and enjoyed it very much, but there is more to it
than sitting in a production booth and spinning tunes for a radio
audience. As only our Loving Father can
work out, God has blessed me in profound ways that have intertwined both my
love for music and my love for Jesus Christ.
Many years ago, I fulfilled a dream by becoming the bass
player in a local band back in my small hometown in Alabama. This would have never been possible if I was
not serving as a youth minister at the West Point First United Methodist Church. More recently, here in Knoxville, I am equally blessed to
serve on the audio/video production team at Cokesbury Church's West Campus some
Sundays.
You see, God has created all of us with both a general
purpose and a specific purpose. In a
general sense, we are all to share the love of Christ with other people. In specific terms, we have all been given
unique Spiritual gifts that God wants us to use to make a worthwhile
contribution while we are here on earth.
