The other day Sue and I were listening to some live music in the park. The singer and musicians were good and while enjoyable it wasn’t my preference – it was American Country music. I’m much more into 70’s and 80’s rock music.
As I reflected on musical preferences, I thought about the great variety of music we have, both in and out of the church. There is music to suit our tastes, our mood, our generation. All of it is good we are simply inclined towards different styles.
When I was pastor at Turramurra, we had a lady in our worship team who taught recorder at the conservatorium of music. Her preferred musical style or genre was Baroque. We don’t have much Baroque music played in church anymore, but she was happy to go with whatever was chosen. She simply wanted to worship God.
I want to encourage you to simply worship God as we meet. Whatever the music, the singing, the prayers, the readings, the message, the silence we come to worship. I know for some life is tough at present simply come and be with God and his people. For others life is going well so come and worship God for his goodness and look for what he might have for you to give those who are struggling.
Many Blessings
Grant and Sue
