My children and I have always enjoyed the privilege of worshipping at the church pastored by one of the leading recording artists in Christian and Gospel Music. Clint Brown is Pastor of Faith World Center in Orlando, Florida. He focuses his talent on Praise and worship songs and has been spinning out top of the chart numbers over the years.
Going to church sometimes compares to going to a concert, the only difference being that it is usually free and then one gets a fantastic up lifting message to go with the concert. Occasionally, friends of the pastor from the music industry drop by the house to worship and that means that the congregation gets a free concert that Sunday. Memorable visitors include Andrae Crouch, Donny Mcllurlin, Cee Cee Winnan, Vicky Winnan, The Winnan brothers, Ron Kenoly, to mention a few. It is always a huge fun to be in church on such days.
Today, pastor Brown tried an approach which he had used in the past, but today he put a new touch to it. Backed by his awesome choir, he went old school, performing old songs which were secular, but fit very well into church. Once, they did a fantastic rendition of Lean on me which the congregation absolutely enjoyed.
Earth, wind and Fire was featured today and it was beautiful. The grooving went on for a while before he rendered a beautiful message on the paralytic who was brought through the roof to be healed. The friends of the paralytic had that much faith and their faith was honoured. His message was for people to hang around the friends and family who will go the extra mile to get them to the source. How beautiful!!!
This week as you go through the daily struggles of life, remember to "Sing a Song"
When you feel down and out
Sing a song,
it'll make your day
Here's a time to shout
Sing a song,
it'll make a way
Sometimes it's hard to care
Sing a song,
it'll make your day
A smile so hard to bear
Sing a song,
it'll make a way
Sing a song
Sing a song
Sing a song
Sing a song
Bring your heart to believing
Sing a song,
it'll make your day
Life ain't about no retrieving
Sing a song,
it'll make a way
Give yourself what you need
Sing a song,
it'll make your day
Smile, smile smile and believe
Sing a song,
it'll make a way
Sing a song
Sing a song
Sing a song
Sing a song
