Noel said it much better than I did.
This isn't just for musicians and or music. Its for anyone that wants to be there for the fellowship and sharing with each other. We were together for 7 hours, but could have taken it to 2:00 in the morning easy.
Noel and I were just warming up when I had to go. We started at 10:00 and ended at 5:00pm.
I'm looking forward to our next get together which will be, hopefully July.
God willing, barrabus will be able to make it next time.
Its going to keep getting better.
Peace
Roy

Hi Roy I'm new to the forum. This will be my 4Th post. Thanks so much for your warm welcome, by the way!
So wow, just got done reading all the posts on this thread. I have to say I'm pretty excited about this.
Now I also have to say I am not a musician. I've only picked up my flute a few times since grade school and I'd have to stand on a really high mountain to see how far back that was. I'm not a singer either although I love to sing, do it all the time in the shower and the car.
I did sing with the church choir on and off for a few years in my church days. That was awhile ago. Needless to say I'm an armature, no formal training and in my opinion just OK.
I am also not a writer,lyricist,or poet. As a matter of fact I never wrote anything other than an occasional letter here and there up until a year or so before the Lord called me out of the church. This is where it gets interesting about this thread at least for me.
I stated in my introduction and testimony that I was being taught of God alone for the last five years before finding bibletruths.com and this forum. During that time and even a few years before , as I was being called out of the church I did a lot of journaling. Much of only now is starting to make since to me. I know the Lord was using it all to teach and prepare me for the real Truth of the Gospel of the Kingdom of God. I was going through so much turmoil at times and other times unbelievable awe and comfort from the Lord and His Word. In any case I would express myself on paper as my heart would pour out to the Lord the things that He was pouring into me through His Spirit and His Word. If that makes any sense. Much of my writing is in retrospect of all that the Lord has brought me through and the truths of His Word He was teaching me.
There seems to be poems or lyrics or hymns or spiritual songs in much of it although I dont know for sure , because like I said I have never had, before that time, any of those kinds of talents nor been trained. I do sing some of them to the Lord, so I guess some could be considered songs. I say all that to say this; I will start posting some of the things I've written on the poems and inspiriational board. You can tell me what you think if you want, not to put you on the spot. I was going to post some on there anyway, just to share and hopefully encourage someone. I know we all come from different circumstances, but the one thing we do share and have in common is our love of the truth in the testimony of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! If you could ever use anything I've written in your quest, I would love to help out in this way. Just let me know.
Your sister in Christ, Crystal

crystal,
in reading through your posts so far, and then reading your post on this thread, i was thinking to myself that you have a wonderful way of expressing yourself. some of the statements in your posts could be the beginnings of some great lyrics. so i imagine your journal contains much of the same inspiring phrases. i mentioned in a pm to roy that i thought it would be cool to read through all the posts on the different threads and pull out some of the Spirit filled statements and thougths by our forum family members. i am sure there are many, many lyrics waiting to be put to music. what a wonderful resource of Truths contained in our collective posts.
just wanted to let you know that you have a gift for putting your thoughts on paper (or in this case, the computer keyboard).
in His Love,
claudia

As long as your motives are pure I don't think you all should be so leery of fame and fortune. Why don't you leave that to God too. My sister just retired from the music industry after 25 years, she is not jaded nor has her sweetness been reduced. I have met so many musicians through her and her husband, a lawyer for some of the top names in music history. I attribute my sister's integrity to her middle American background and 12 yrs. of Christian education.Her husband is from Alaska, the son of a single mother. He worked his way up from nothing, traveled all over the world and is still the nice and fair guy he started out as. Just letting you know of a few but good connections. Judy
