First Day of Church

April 2, 2007 · 1 Comment

Well, first of all, I must say that I think might’ve officially switched to days. I slept from 12:30am-6:30am last night. Does that count? I do have one new word in my dictionary. It’s hmm…. let me see if I can spell it right…. SUNLIGHT! Wow. I didn’t think I could make it.

Anyways, today was my first day at church. I felt quite awkward, but it turned out to be really good. I played in the worship team and God really, really showed up. It was awesome! That’s my favorite, when God shows up. It’s great goodness. Today the focus for the message was children so it was fun. But I just loved being able to experience God’s presence while playing.

I was wondering if people here would think I’m the crazy, naive kid who just came back from IHOP. I’m sure some do but I actually had three people come up to me and ask me to share my experiences at IHOP with the brand-new young adult group at my church. They said the group would be really blessed and built up. How cool, I thought. Maybe this is one of the reasons I was supposed to come back. One of the moms even asked about the FITN program b/c she was considering sending one of her kids. Totally unexpected.

Anyways, I gotta go to bed and wake up tomorrow for my first day at work. I’ll let you know how it goes.
