Anticipation

   Over the past year I have been collaborating with some friends.  Our project??? Music.  We have spent countless hours writing, composing, arranging, rehearsing, and re-arranging. November will find us in the recording studio putting it all together.
  It has been a long process. None of us have played professionally before, and what started as a few friends playing worship songs together has become so much  more! Each song that we have written has a story behind it. Lyrics that were wept over as they were scrawled across scraps of paper. Musical sounds that carry the emotion behind the lyrics. Vocal recordings that were interrupted by tears.
  I thought in the beginning of this project that we might be able to play some worship events... nothing major. As the process has been unfolding, we have grown and so has our vision. In the next few weeks we will begin to shoot a video for one of our original songs. This same song is in the hands of a multi-state foster/adoption organization that is interested in using it as a promotional tool. The potential is exciting and scary.
  To think that someone outside of my circle of friends would be interested in hearing a piece of my journey set to music is almost unimaginable. Yet here I sit..... in great anticipation....waiting to see what God has in store for us.
