| whenever i stay awake late into the night, i always feel this inspiration to write, or think about my future and where God wants me to go.
hence why i am writing in this sucker blog.
i'm currently listening to Brightwood-Swan Song (LISTEN TO IT!)
but lately w/ my band not being active (it's been about a month now)
i've been working on some new material and for once i feel like my band is growing w/ fans.
we've been struggling w/ alot of issues as a band, as friends and that information will be disclosed in a few months from now. It's hard, it's always hard to keep the communication lines free and open b/w friends.
i feel like we're understanding what it means to be a band and are learning what our roles are, besides banging away on our instruments and doing what we enjoy the most.
i feel like i've grown so much over the span of a year (and still learning)
i've only been playing electric guitar for 2 years. i didn't know anything (still dont)
but over the past two years i have learned ways to write music w/o the basic and constant strumming of an acoustic guitar. i remember i didn't think my voice would sound good w/ an electric guitar behind me.
i can't believe i was in this dashboard confessional phase for so long (yeah, i said it, i like DC)
but i'm glad i got out of that acoustic emo genre quick, cause i'm really digging what my band and i have to offer.
i love music, I LOVE MUSIC, if music was a woman i would love her.
PRAISE GOD FOR THE GIFT OF MUSIC, because if i didn't have this ability to express myself through song, i think i'd blow up. if i could do music as a career, i would be the happiest man alive. having the opportunity to do something i love, and expressing myself through this passion. man there's no other job that could be better. i can't see myself as a doctor, or an engineer or a scientist. i can only see myself either writing music, recording music, or performing music. i could talk about music 24/7 and never grow weary.
the best part about music is that you get to travel.
i love to travel. touring this past summer was amazing. thanks to friends and family friends.
i would love to tour around the country and hopefully the world doing what i love. i just pray God will give me opportunities to. we shall see. hopefully a few more years.
the greatest thing i have learned from all of this is patience.
w/ ppl, my muse that every so often speaks through me, life, love. so much.
i believe God has given me this gift and this passion for music. i will give him glory. ALL THAT I CAN GIVE. it's His. not mine, because this life is not what i can call my own.
my mission with my music is: to reach out, and encourage people who do not have Christ, and show them Jesus through my actions, words, and the way i live. i want to challenge people i meet at shows, show them that I LOVE GOD and that God loves them and that they need to love and fear Him b/c he is our creator and Lord. it kills me whenever i see teenagers who desperately need Christ but run to music as their support and comfort for their sins. I want to be the connection to show them that Christ is all they need, not music. (i want to write more but i will stop there for now).
i love God, and through music i am able to express my love for Him.
i am not afraid to praise Him freely.
i pray that everyone can praise God freely. why do we act as if we are tied down by our burdens during praise when we are truly FREE b/c of the blood Christ shed? Why are we afraid to dance and shout his name at the top of our lungs.
I LOVE TO SING TO THE POINT OF LOSING MY VOICE, b/c i feel like i am giving God all i have.
some may think it is unnecessary but it is how i praise. i love praising God. He brings me true joy.
gosh i could write and write about music and how grateful i am. praise God.
praise Him FREELY. do not be afraid or worried. let go of your burdens and give God all the glory.
Soli Deo Gloria.
