Cranked? You bet! A great day of teaching, seeing great progress from my students and then over to the house of a new friend, a worship leader for a church near me. He asked me to sit in with their band this Sunday, so I went to his house today to practice and get ready. Personally, I think it was a big chance he took, committing to let me play when he had hardly heard me, only talked to me twice on the phone so far. Unlike Nigel Tufton of Spinal Tap, I am NOT known for my soloing... Don't get me wrong - I can do it, and I have done it, but people almost always hire me or ask me to play bass. But God has me in a place right now where I am falling in love with the guitar like I did when I was a teenager... Just after the cretaceous period. It is such an incredible instrument and I am every day pinching myself because I get to play guitar....every day. So I am cranked. Tomorrow I get to play guitar with some great musicians in a great church. Did I mention I was cranked? Pretty sure I did.
Gonna be great tomorrow ... I can feel it. Lesson from God in all of this? Perhaps it's all about God opening doors of opportunity to allow me to use my gifts and abilities. It might just be because God loves me and delights in me being...well...cranked. Either way, tomorrow I get to play my guitar for the King. And I am cranked.

Bloggin with Mr G.... I have purposed to take time each day to just stop. Stop and listen to what God is saying to me. Stop to see if I can see something that He is doing. Every day. Stop. Look. Listen. Let's see what happens.
