worship setlist @ Q – 2008.05.25…

worship this sunday led by deanza spaulding.
she ROCKED.
her voice never ceases to amaze… it has such strength, rawness and texture to it all it’s own. am looking forward to having her help out more and having the church be blessed by her giftedness in the several coming months before the birth of her 2nd child (and hopefully after too!).
and i know the women at Q love it when she leads… since her setlist has songs that are better suited for the female vocal range. can’t say how many threats i receive about the higher vocal range of the setlist i usually have. sorry ladies! :T

* i am blessed to serve in any capacity i can with this gifted worship ministry… especially when it’s the drums! 😉

Lord,
we pray and submit this situation in china to You.
for those who have passed,
for those who have lost loved ones,
for those who are injured and hurting,

be with them in their grieving/mourning.
remain their sustenance and their hope.

may we be called to continual prayer and moved to action.
forgive me for being so selfish, Father. 😦
help my heart to beat in tune to Yours.
to be an extension of You to those in need.

amen…

when reports first broke about a cyclone hitting myanmar, i remember thinking to myself… ‘oh no, not another disaster in that region of the world!‘. then i remember thinking, ‘wait a sec… what is a cyclone‘? (though, wikipedia has an entry on cyclone, i’m not sure i completely understand what it really is. if you’re a good teacher and have loads of patience, hit me up and explain this to me. coffee on me!)
all i do know for sure? the devastation the cyclone has done to region of myanmar.
reports early on gave the death toll and it continued and continues to grow and i fear it will never be accurately tallied… (i was honestly thinking it was going to be like part 2 of the terrible 2004 tsunami, where a quarter of a million people lost their lives.)

100+
364+
1,000+
10,000+
20,000+…
…more?
