Praise Him!

Tonight the worship teams for the various services put on a concert on the stage. I had seen it advertised and wanted to go. It worked out that I could make it and I really enjoyed it. There were multiple bands and choirs plus a short message from one of the chaplains. One of the bands played multiple Third Day songs so I was really enjoying that. Another played some Casting Crowns – also enjoyed that although it was little tougher for them to pull off.

The most moving moment for me was when three girls were doing an interpretive/worship dance. They moved around and performed sign language as some songs played. It was quite entertaining. One of the songs was “I can only imagine.” That one kind of got me sad. For those of you that don’t know that song is one of my favorites. It talks of a time when we’ll be in heaven and in the presence of God. What we will we do? Will we stand in his presence or in awe of him be still? Will I be able to speak at all? I can only imagine.

I used to sing that to my girls before bed time. I did it a few times when it was on the radio and then it became a request all the time. Riley and Mary just loved it. Anyway. It made me really miss them. Someday soon I’ll be back and sing that for them at bed time…maybe we can even teach little lu about it.
