It feels like so long since I've led worship. It's such an honor, leading people before God.
My wrists hurt from playing the keyboard... but I still love it.
I always have trouble picking songs... this week, no different.
Sometimes I feel so inadequate... spiritually, musically... and then I become hesitant, scared...
But then I remember that if I just bring the best that I have, that's all I've got to do. And God will do the rest.
So what if I can't play like some crazy jazz or concert pianist? God looks at the heart.
So what if we don't sound like a rock band? It ain't about the instruments/the people playing/the "feelings"...
It makes me sad to hear "oh no, no drums this week" or "that song is boring" or...
I know it's only human. But it makes me sad: "worship" for entertainment purposes only.
If we come expecting to experience God, then He'll surely meet us.
Music is an amazing thing! How it somehow allows us to express feelings that can't be formed into mere words.

i know! sometimes i appreciate no drums. that instrument is so loud and obnoxious
=P
always blocking the melody and harmony. sheesh. they're supposed to complement, not dominate........
yay
I would love to come and worship with you under your leading one day, Judy! 
It's always so amazing to watch God do the Work that really matters.
i luv music!
You're a great worship leader, Juday!!
See you Sunday!
i sing gospel to my son sometimes since that all i know. I don't know how to sing itsy bitsy spider or anything like that...lol
yknow, i've always loved the simplicity of our worship team. dont care much for rock bands. that's what concerts are for. not sunday worship. besides, i love your voice. =)
i LOVE the way you worship!! you always look like you are sitting in God's lap when you worship, and i always aspire for such intimacy.
hi hudini
you have lots of good ideas and talent. plus, you know what's the most important thing about worship. yay for glorifying God in your worship time. 
thank you for reminding us that worship is not about how we feel about the song we sing, it is about humbling ourselves before God each week and expected to be changed and tramsformed by Jesus. Amen!!
so true...you're a gifted worship leader
God's gonna use whatever song you choose!!!
How was worship?!
I'm know God totally used you and met you guys intimately...
"and i can feel the love of God in this place... i can feel Your goodness and receive Your grace... i delight myself at Your table or God, You do all things well..." (word right? haha)
I LOVE that song! we still sing it too! oldie but goodie!
i fight with my sister about little things all the time but i still stand behind her when she goes thru tough time.
