ONE:
When I was 17 I felt the call upon my life lead me towards music. I knew music ministry would be part of my life forever and in the last 10 years I've successfully released 2 full length indie records, 1 EP, and a live album....and well, POTENTIALLY This week my first nationally released album hits Itunes.TWO:
When I was 21, I felt compelled to write a book. I wrote 7 chapters before my PC crashed and the book was erased. This year God gave me my dream back and the book is completed, and I currently have them printed and boxed in my office ready to share with the world.THREE:
I always new I'd be part of a church that was world changing. I knew I was called to the Lord through Worship, and being part of a worship experience that was changing lives was something I hoped i'd one day be a part of....and today I can say I am. Celebration church spans the globe, feeds orphans, restores girls that have been rescued from sex trafficking, and on a weekly basis I watch people give there life to Christ in massive numbers.....God has been so faithful, and now that I am humbly walking in the dreams I asked God for in my youth, my heart and my mind cannot fathom what He has in store for me in the next season...I feel a bit like David did as he brought the arc of the covenant towards the city. I feel as if every couple steps I should stop, and bow to my knees and thank God for this moment, for this season. And for the Grace to live this out...
One of the first worship leaders I really loved, when I first started playing music was, Rita Springer. And this moment her song Created to worship fills my heart.
I am your sacrifice
I am your offering
I was created to worship you
There's nothing I could bring
That would mean more then this one thing
I was created to worship you.
You are all I have
All I have is you
You are all I am
All I am is you
Whatever you ask of me
There's no one I'd rather be
Then one created to worship you
In all that comes my way
Poverty fame or pain
I was created to worship you
Without you there's nothing Lord
Now and forevermore
I was created to worship you
I am your offering
I was created to worship you
There's nothing I could bring
That would mean more then this one thing
I was created to worship you.
You are all I have
All I have is you
You are all I am
All I am is you
Whatever you ask of me
There's no one I'd rather be
Then one created to worship you
In all that comes my way
Poverty fame or pain
I was created to worship you
Without you there's nothing Lord
Now and forevermore
I was created to worship you
In Awe,
Chari
