Still Dreaming

Well, here I am!


I auditioned to be a member of the worship band at a new church, which I wish to call my home church.  I played "I Will Go" by Desperation Band on my guitar and sang my heart out.  Well, they loved me!  They asked me to be a member of the band and that would soon be hearing from them regarding scheduling.  To put things into perspective; the church is very large and 2 services going on at the same time 2 times a day!  The band has many many members so scheduling & availability is everything!


My audition was the first weekend in April.  It is now the last week in July and I have not played with them one!  LOL.  I guess I understand that there are many musicians & singers who have been in the band before me but I just really want to play & sing and lead worship!  So, I am still waiting to be put into the schedule rotation. 


In the mean time, I'm still looking for a position in a church that me and my husband can call home and where I can play music, sing to the Lord and lead worship to a congregation that is driving by their love of Jesus.

"The Best Job in the World"

Okay, I know I haven't blogged here for...oh dear a year a half, but I've been actively pursuing a career in my dream job.

My day job is unique and provides me with the opportunities to meet new and different people. I meet and talk with fire fighters every now and then, and the same resounding comment comes every one of them, "We're fire fighters, we have the best job in the world". I smile and listen in on their joys of the job and even the challenges, but why they're worth it. This phrase got me thinking... I want "The Best Job in the World"!!!!

As I ponder what the best job in the world would be for me, I always end up in the place I originally dreamed I'd be: being a musician, singing, song writing and worshipping God!

I play my guitar as often as I can. I write songs when I feel the words flooding from my head. I dream of what it will be like to one day do music as my full time career! That would be my Best Job in the World.
