"All of history is moving toward one great goal, the
white-hot worship of God and his Son among all the peoples of the
earth. Missions exists because worship doesn't. Worship is ultimate,
not missions, because God is ultimate, not man.... When this age is
over, and the countless millions of the redeemed fall on their faces
before the throne of God, missions will be no more. It is a
temporary necessity. But worship abides forever."

It happens with every musician, early on. There's that moment when the instrument quits being a frustrating bafflement and becomes something that works, and that can be joyfully built upon.
I'm listening to my daughter Bethany in her room, playing guitar and singing. She's reached that moment in the last few weeks, and is progressing at a really swift pace.
I love the sound.
