TODAY'S SONIC QUESTION IS:
Tell me about your worship experience tonight at Eagle Heights.
Praising our Lord,
Ken
I think it was so awesome to get up there and sing for an audience of one! The glory was definitely given to God! I love the people at Eagle Heights because they are definitely loud and proud for Jesus. They aren't afraid to stand up, shout Jesus' name, cry, or show their passion for Christ. I think that's definitely something we all need to learn from. We should just allow ourselves to worship and honor the Lord and forget about looking silly or being too scared to praise Him. It was definitely an awesome experience!
Hello, I would just like to say I enjoy playing and singing at youth choir and you all have blessed me greatly. Tonight at Eagle heights Church I felt God's presence in the building and we really touched the congregation by singing and praising.
Also I believe I am the first of the guys to comment so there's number one and I'm sure others will follow soon!
Blessings upon you peoples, Fraser :p
I also do not endorse my look alike in the audience of one film. The young man you saw was an imposter... we will start the reward for his capture at $100. If you see him please do not contact anyone with the whereabouts of him just sit back down and inhale deeply as you may be hallucinating.
Blessings Fraser :p
ok... let's start by stating that Fras has some clinical issues that the doctors are still trying to figure out... And the worship was, well, AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought that GOD truely led us tonight. This also proves how willing we'll probably be in Scotland. I'm excited because God has calmed in me the storm that was churnig about us, SOCTLAND-GOERS, letting God use us. PRAISE GOD BECAUSE HE IS POWERFUL AND IN CONTROL OF EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!
amen..
willingly loving Him,
tee
What an awesome experience to worship with you all last night! wow! I am sooo excited to "share" you all with the people of Scotland! I get so excited when I think about their reaction to your worship! I pray that the congregations at the churches we will be working with will be renewed in their worship and praise to the Lord and that the children in the schools and their families will come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ! The worship experience at Eagle Heights was a glimpse at what we will encounter in Scotland! You all have such a gift of ushering in people to the throne of God with your voices, your expressions and your true spirit of praise. Never take that for granted and know that each time you sing those songs (even though you have sung them many times) may be the first time those hearing you have heard them - so sing each time as if it was the first time! Keep up the GREAT work - I feel priveleged to be going with you all and worshipping and ministering alongside you! (I may only be playing rhythmn on the "egg" but I will play it with all my heart to glorify the Lord! Ha!) Love you all!
The devotion for today was so powerful - I Kings 19: 1-18 actually happens to be one of my favorite passages of scripture. This is the second time it has appeared in our devotions actually - must be important, huh? I pray Lord, that I would daily seek you to "feed" me through your Word. May I indulge in it for my nourishment and strength to keep on "keeping on" for you! Help me to listen for your voice, knowing that it doesn't always come in a mighty wind or an earthquake, but often times in a small, still voice - a whisper.
