forgiveness
I'll make this short and simple...I thank God for his ability to forgive. I had a really bad rehearsal last week at my church choir and was acting pretty stupid, but today when I walked into church, they all said that they had forgiven me for my behavior and understood that we all have moments. There are so many words to describe how I felt about myself: ashamed, embarrassed, immature, but they all found it in their hearts to look past those negative things about myself last week and still wanted to sing for me. I don't know that I could have found a more loving community that the CP church. They really are the best examples of what a Christian community should be like. This morning I had so many church members come up to me and Lisa and say how much they had enjoyed the music. I felt like crying because after last week I definitely didn't deserve the praise they were giving. It's amazing how this church community really has made me strive to be a better person. I may not come out being a better music director (which was my original intention), but I've gained something much more important.
