YMCA is the place to be

Went to the YMCA on Deanza(?) and it actually has a really nice gym. Benched... and I am back to where my school year max! Although now my arms are somewhat strange in shape... I have gigantic tris now and really small forarms. It's because I haven't been able to do any grippy exercises in a while. W/E this is quite nerdy, so I will change subjects.

Met with Tony today to prepare a small group type lesson for Fountain of Joy church. We are talking about... denying self. How appropriate. Must be from all of Jon's preaching. It's more of a gererally overview and really, what people need to hear. Teaching salvation and daily living is more important than pumping them up with firey emotions.

I think God told me something important today. A worship team should do more then just practice. Prayer should be an intergral part or a team. Isn't God directing the whole show, and knows each person in the congregation? I think practices should always start with the team on their knees plainly laying themselves out for the Lod to be used. All practice is for naught without the Lord!

I am really anticipating tomorrows practice. I'm a little anxious, Lord help me. Sometimes I wonder how am I suppose to teach them, or if I can handle teaching multiple people calmly and in an organized way. Also I want to encourage and not be so hard like I am for normal music lessons. I will just pray and commit it to God's hands.

Listening to Korean rap. Pretty good stuff.
