My Voice
So please don't take this as me boasting. That is NOT my intention at all. But, I have to share this. I have recently sang two songs for The Point. One was "Never Alone" by Barlow Girl. The other one was "Oh How He Loves Us" by John McMillan. Both times the song had a section where I just didn't like the way my voice sounded. It was usually the part that was made to impress people. You know that section where the singer belts and shows their stuff. Well, I was timid to say the least. As I came before the crowd I knew that those specific sections would not be very soothing. Still I knew God had put those specific songs on my heart. I knew they had the power to minister. So despite my fear I still chose to sing those specific songs. I am here to testify that both times the Lord took over my vocal chords. I sang the part how I would have desired for it to sound. In the midst of singing, God gave my voice power. I have noticed that overtime my voice has slowly improved. I think this comes from singing as much as I do and being around amazing singers. You start to emulate. I have always loved to sing. But, I actually love singing for an audience of one the most. There is nothing sweeter than being in an empty room and filling the emptiness with praises to God. No performance, no critics, and one captivated God!

You voice has always been so beautiful. I can imagine how great those songs sounded as the Lord gave them that extra, Holy Spirit infused "Umph!"
