James 1:2-8

Posted on September 06, 2006

This part of Jame's letter to the 12 tribes of Israel speaks so much to me with regard to my personal trials I felt compelled to share it:

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. 4Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. 5If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. 6But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 7That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; 8he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does.

Day 3 of the Purpose Driven Worship Conference

Posted on June 29, 2006
It's Thursday morning and I'm in the Saddleback Church sanctuary for the Purpose Driven Worship Conference.  The rest of the group from my church and I are waiting for the morning concert to start.  It's been a pretty cool experience hanging out with other people in the worship and tech ministries at my church and attending the conference.  The music has been incredible, the people great, and the speakers, such as Marcos Witt , are amazing.  There are times where I can definately feel the Holy Spirt and His presence here and I'm very grateful for my church and Kevin, our worship pastor for sending me (And for my work allowing me to go in the middle of a stressful project).
