I’ve always been a little curious about what God thinks about our worship songs.

You know how most of them seem to be us reasuring ourselves of His existence. I know that’s a cinical point of view and I don’t want to put that spin on this idea. I’m more or less womdering about the ideas behind worship music.

Make a joyfull noise right, and it’s an expresion of ones self. (or atleast the person who wrote the song) I think for me its more or less that I can’t just turn on worship mode. Its definitely something to warm up to.

Another thing that I often wonder about is what past generations would say about the production of a simple worship set up like the one above.

Any thoughts?

There are many kind of faith in the world, and Im not talking about different beliefs. Im talking about the difference between a person who opens a door on faith and a person who waits for the door to open on faith. (this is not meant to be compared to the verse about knocking and the door shall be opened)

If you could define your faith by defining your polar opposite what would it be?

My polar opposite is the person that does and says things on a blind leap of faith. On average I like to wait and test the water, see what’s going on first. I’ll admit, sometime even I have to close my eyes and jump.

just remember that even though the north pole is on the top and the south pole is on the bottom, their both covered in Ice…

I’m not entirely sure why I’m a skeptic but I definitely am, especially when it comes to Church. I’m a very visually judgmental person (even though you will never notice it, and you wouldn’t think it.) and I know that is a bad thing. I also have a tendancy to think that people are what they appear to be, and I know that is wrong as well.

Although I find Church strange in the fact that the same Bible verses are referenced a million time in the span of only half my life time, it would appear there are more than a million different ways to look at something. Believe me I know what the right frame of mind can do for any sermon, and I know what the wrong frame of mind can do as well.

So as I sat there I pulled out my pins and began to draw a few doodles while listening, and as I listened I thought about a few things.

Here they are… I scribbled these down in Church as they came into my head…

Stories for us that we’ve never done or seen, but examples for us to think about. To pretend that we would give up our first born to trust God. Metaphors for life and examples, yet every time the same concepts with a new wrapper… Not always… It’s like a bag of different kinds of candy.

Will I really move mountains?
Will I really have the voice of even the Apostles?
To do what we can to break the Mold…What will we do?
I don’t like the Mold I feel like we stand in.
Is there something different coming?…different in the sense of social structure, something bad.
Is this Mold being built to make us weak?

Make no mistake, I don’t say these things because I’m new believer. I don’t say these things because I’m loosing my faith. I don’t say these things because I want an answer from you. these are rhetorical ‘?’s… But questions all the same, and when I find my answers I think things will be different.
