Thanks AndPeter, for the response, I am thankful for Nigels fellowship, as it touched something in my heart that I experienced from this past weekend in Columbus.

I find reflection can be helpful, but can become a paraylizing condition, if ones gaze remains on the things that immediately surround him. I spoke with many brothers whom I had limited contact in years past and from that, felt new chapters were opening to me, in whatever ministry I may give myself to; In Him.

Another new experience was going to a conference to hear more than just something "new," but to hear a word that we knew from old, yet has become new. To me this was the first chapter of Joshua, filled with the encouragement of God to be bold, go forward and posess all the land that lies before you. I felt the years I had spent in the church have prepared me for this day and today I am ready for my "moment!"

Praise Him, all His children!

Blessings to all,

Shawn

Worse.
For a period of years, there were no instruments permitted except for the piano. Any other instrument represented rebellion.

I guess guitars were only banned on Sunday morning, because brothers played them every other day of the week.
