Singing in the Stairwell

So things are getting into the full school mode. Funny how a couple of tests and assignments can make you feel like a student...anywho.

Yesterday at practicum I had the privilege of singing/ playing guitar with one of the guys who works there...of all places, this happened in a stairwell. Having worked in the music studio part, I was used to hearing the strings of a guitar being plucked by some of the guys who came in to practice, but it was rarely a song that I would recognize. This guy however had a binder open and I noticed that the song it was opened to was "How great Thou art." Being familiar with the hymn I stopped to find out what this man was doing. I attempted (and failed) to try and help him understand some of his questions with playing since I'm only a very beginner guitar player who rarely picks up her guitar...but from there we went through his binders and just sang and played for a good hour. So great. Most of the songs that he had were old hymns and choruses which I love and it was a pleasure to sing them. Most of the time it's just me playing the songs without any kind of vocal accompaniment so it was a real joy to have run into this man. We then just chatted for a while and somehow got to talking about miracles and how it was a miracle that he had gotten his guitar in the first place. But then he asked me if God had done any miracles in my life lately. This I had to think about. Sure I can see that God works and that nature itself is a miracle and what not, but to have seen God's hand at work in ways so obvious that it has to be God I confess is something I hadn't necessarily experienced lately in my life. Unfortunate.

Then shortly after meeting this man, I met another man who showed me more passion for God and the Truth and the miracle of grace in his life than I have seen in anyone in a long time. It was just so cool to see and hear that for this man, the love and grace of God was still so real and evident in his life. Really cool to see that.

Anyways...what has God done in your life lately?
