iWorship 101

I was blown away by the worship leadg class w Bro Poh last Thur!

Before going, my heart was already full of anticipation to CATCH something from this "Miracle Man". (not electricity current but sparks of anointing in worship)

The class began by worshipping God.

Many teared as the music ministers to us…
As the guitar was played on stage, I can feel WAVES of love RIPPLING }}}}} towards me.

In the sharing, Bro Poh poured out a lot of his personal experiences & insights, coupled with a twist of humor... that got us laughing!

Things I learnt…
- “Talent Attracts Talent!”
- “Do not limit God”
- “New things bring new breakthroughs”
- “WMA” vs “MP3” format
- Dun be a “one-time wonder”
- Keep on progressing (e.g. Don Moen is still writing songs, one can try mastering new chords etc.)

He emphasized both skills & spirituality are equally important and he playfully related basic four chord strumming with a “Take Me Home, Country Roads” song. Haha… Oops!

Offering help… he shared a few guitar-playing techniques that easily add “life & variety” to the same song.

I reached home near midnight and before going to bed, I spent some time with God.

Taking out my guitar (which was left on the shelf for weeks…), I began to play "My Life, Your Song" with my limited guitar chords & “cannot-make-out-what-is-it” sound…

Nevermind…

The lyrics spoke LOUDER than the “music”…
What touched me that night was in the line…

"My whole world, Your design...
You're always there... Just right behind... …
My life… is Your song... "


I thought about certain things in my life…
And tears began to well up in my eyes and overflow down the cheeks...
It was a good time soaking in His presence…

Worship was great during cg later in the evening!
I shared with the members about class w Bro Poh n my satisfyg QT…

As we sang... presence of God was strong & tangible!
A while later, I opened my eyes and saw ALL the members (even the 2-weeks “young” ones) outstretch their arms, worship the Lord, engage in the spirit.
It is a BEAUTIFUL sight… *love*

Can't wait for more impartation this coming Thur's iworship 101!!!

One word to sum up... INSPIRED!
