You know that feeling when you get when you’re in a room full of people striving for the same goal. Where everyone is vibing for the same cause. Where you feel the momentum going forward for this revolution. This revolution that can’t be stopped. Where you feel so close to the person next to you, and you have no idea what their name is. Where you get goose bumps, and you begin getting this excitement growing in your soul to where you want more, need more, crave more.
Then the guitarist plays a few more chords, and the singer sings a few more lyrics. And then you get this rush of all new emotions.
Music is away for me to express my feelings, my love for Jesus and others. Though I can’t sing, I can play my guitar and to me that’s just as good. My guitar to me is like a gateway to God. When I play, I only play for him and no one else. It’s like we have this special bond between us that’s connected by my guitar. (When I say special bond I don’t think that God and I have this thing that no one else has. I think we all have our special way of communicating or showing our love to God, that only you and God know and share). I tend to play my guitar a lot, actually I play it everyday. I play for the youth group and on Sunday services, and I can’t get enough of it.
The best part about playing my guitar is that I get to share my gateway to God. My special bond. Like today at church we played this song where I was able to turn my guitar up way loud and rock out. I was playing with these funky sounds that I made the night before, and to see the older generation of our congregation rocking out to it was awesome. When I see and feel everyone vibing together with a purpose and a common goal, it makes me feel like I did something good, and that God is pleased. To me that's the greatest feeling in the world.
