Friday, I went to the Fish WNO. Jonny Diaz opened. He had a good sense of humor and his songs were fun to listen to. His hit "A More Beautiful You" was the start of the thread of messages that God seemed to be giving me.
Then Selah sang. I've always enjoyed their music. Amy Perry also shared a message on what she had learned through her insecurities throughout her life. It was powerfully touching; and when she sang afterwards, it was like crying out to God. Beautifully touching!
On Sunday, I went to the Steven Curtis Chapman "The Glorious Unfolding" concert. He started with "Good to Be Alive". Jason Gray opened. He also shared about his stuttering. Then Laura Story sang. I've always enjoyed her singing. She is a good worship leader; and her songs are moving. It's nice that Steven actually kicked off the concert and took the time to introduce and sing with each of the "opening" artists.
Of course, Steven's music is great. His longevity in Christian music is amazing. It was also his anniversary, and he sang the song on his latest album that he wrote for his wife - "Together". He also sang "I Will Be Here". But, the song that fit in with the thread of messages from God was the song he had written for his now teenage daughter Shaohannah, "Only One and Only You". What beautiful lyrics in the chorus:
"There’s no other masterpiece like you
You are the only one and only you"
This thread of messages is so clear that I cannot help but acknowledge that this must be God's response to my prayers. He is speaking to me, and I should listen though I may often have doubts about this particular message, due to my inbred insecurities.
