Ability and adequacy
Here we go, kiddies. Ireland is just around the corner, although it still seems far away. It hasn't sunk in that we'll be on a Europe-bound plane in under 2 weeks! (just had a reality wave hit me full on...maybe it just started to sink in a little!).
A little request for personal prayer for the moment. I've been struggling with feeling adequate for the Creative Academy, and I'm pretty sure Satan has been using that to his advantage to lay out a spiritual attack on me. When I say adequate, I mean from a musical standpoint. I can hold my own alright with a guitar and singing, but the fear comes when I realize that I'll have to be teaching these kids about things I still feel like a novice @ myself. I was encouraged to hear from a friend @ church who went last year, that it will actually be less technical than what I'm painting in my head...but the doubts are still there. Also good to know I won't be alone (other musicians going and already there). So if yall could be in prayer for that, I'd really appreciate it.
On an exciting note (and scary too :) ), Steve (pastor leading this) got word that there is almost too much demand for the Creative Academy...so we'll be busting @ the seams, it sounds like! Wow!
Keep checking back here - I'm going to try and be pretty regular about posting over the coming days and hopefully while I'm actually on the trip!
Thanks to all for your support and prayers!!
