WOW! All I can say is wow. This past weekend left me completely and utterly speechless. I went to my first Christian concert, and it was an absolutely life changing experience. I was never the person who believed that worship was the ultimate way of showing your love of the Lord. But this week...I sang until my voice was sore and raspy. I sang even when I didn't know all of the words. I sang without hesitation, without fear, and without embarrassment.
I surrendered everything to the One who gave everything. I sang for hours and hours. Lifting praise and glory to the One in the heavens, and praising Him with everything I had. Never had I felt closer to my God. Never had I felt more deep in my faith. Never had I felt the overflowing and overwhelming power of His love. And I knew in this moment that God was sending me down a path to strengthen my relationship with Him.
In the moment, when the chorus of thousands of voices came together, it brought me to tears. In the moment, when everyone stood still, it gave me chills. In the moment, when the band stopped playing, time froze. In the moment, where it was silent, a single breathe could be heard throughout the crowd. In that moment, in that exact moment, is when I felt the closest to God.
This experience has changed my faith, and from now on I will praise my God with my voice. I will praise Him again and again. I will worship Him. I will glorify Him. I will serve Him. I will love Him.
