Friday night I had the opportunity to go to the Casting Crowns concert...did anybody else get to go?
I love live concerts especially when it is a night of worship. This concert was nothing flashy, but God was there and He was lifted HIGH and glorified.
A couple of really cool things that they did was they had a splatter paint artist that did a painting during 2 songs - it was rehearsed of course, but the effect was powerful and anointed.
Another thing that they did was they all sat on stools at the front of the stage and one by one prayed over the audience, each praying over a different dynamic ie: the men, marriages, mums, addictions, etc.
This was very powerful!
I was especially excited to go because their lyrics are incredible and have been instrumental in lifting my head up and giving me strength over the last few months.
At the beginning of the year the Lord told me that the lyrics to 'Voice of Truth' would be the mantra for my life for this year.
"Voice Of Truth"
Oh what I would do to have
The kind of faith it takes to climb out of this boat I'm in
Onto the crashing waves
To step out of my comfort zone
Into the realm of the unknown where Jesus is
And He's holding out his hand
But the waves are calling out my name and they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
Time and time again. 'Boy, you'll never win!'
"You'll never win"
But the voice of truth tells me a different story
And the voice of truth says "Do not be afraid!"
And the voice of truth says "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth
Oh what I would do to have
The kind of strength it takes to stand before a giant
With just a Sling and a stone
Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors
Shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand
But the giant's calling out my name and he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me
Time and time again "boy, you'll never win!
"You'll never win"
But the stone was just the right size
To put the giant on the ground
And the waves they don't seem so high
From on top of them looking down
I will soar with the wings of eagles
When I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
Singing over me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

Tim, the words of this song are fantastic! I can identify with the "Voice of Truth". A real encouragement to keep going with God.
You have been faithful, and God will reward you. Jesus Christ is 100% Reliable 100% of the Time and you can TRUST HIM!
TAKE HEART today, that God has already got your future planned out.
Love You!
Off topic...I would like to read a post about Stephanie. I hope that's her name. Details. I want details. I want to know something about her.
Awesome Tim. I think the greatest comfort to me is when I know the Lord showed me something. Half the time I wonder if I'm still on the path He has for me, then I hear Him and know it's ok, as long as He's there.
a total aside- I can hear your voice and accent as I read your blog- it's too fun.
