I suppose there are worse hobbies...
but I LOVE going to Christian rock concerts. Seriously. Third Day, Mercy Me, Jeremy Camp, Casting Crowns, David Crowder Band, The Gaithers (wink)...just to name a few! As Erica already mentioned, I was very blessed to go to the Jeremy Camp concert on Saturday with Chad, and our friends Dean & Carrie. The guys seem to enjoy the concerts...sort of...but Carrie??? she's a junkie like me!!! We've taken in lots of concerts together..and laugh about how we hope we are still "rocking" when we are old and grey (and I don't mean in a chair!!) I love being at a concert worshipping with her...our hands held high in praise and our hearts focused on the Lord!
Anyway, if you have never had the priviledge of seeing him, Jeremy Camp is a great worship leader in concert. It is not only his music...but his testimony...his heart for the Lord...his desire to have his life reflect nothing but Christ.
His new album comes out today...and I can't wait to hear it...but there is a song from his "Carried Me" album that blesses me everytime I hear it...it is called "Walk by Faith"...and, in fact, a year ago (on Saturday, October 29th...in the midst of adoption turmoil) I journaled about it. The chorus says:
I will walk by faith, even when I cannot see
because this broken road prepares your will for me.
because this broken road prepares your will for me.
As I look at Micah each day, I have an amazing reminder of how God can use a broken road (and I would describe our adoption journey as just that) to prepare His will in our lives. I am thankful for a sovereign God who loves me completely and has our best interest in His hands. I want my life to reflect that. I pray that on this journey I will walk by faith even when I cannot see what the road ahead has in store.
Rock On!!!
