Heading Out
With the three Sundays planned and ready, I head to Nashville tomorrow for the recording of the Easter musical.
More to come...stay tuned and keep praying.
After that we are spending a week at Estes Park for the final GMA "Seminar in the Rockies". Our family will miss the wonderful times we have spent there the last several years. Jubi will miss the horses, and I will miss the time away listening to sessions and reviewing my life with the Lord.
My first Estes was a spiritual experience for me, trying to figure out if the Lord really wanted to use my writing. It was at Estes in 2002 that James Rueger (who did my first ever song critique) said to me, "You really need to check out Write About Jesus" during the final concert. Those words changed my life. That's where I met Sue Smith, who has been such a great mentor and encourager to me and Dave Clark, whose teaching so inspires me and who is now my publisher. I wrote "Sovereign Lord" on the way home, dictating the lines to my son as I drove. It has become a kind of...life theme for me. I'm so glad I can trust that He is in charge of this whole wonderful trip.
