It is so easy to get head of ourselves. I stopped blogging because I wasn't sure if I wanted to continue with the blogger.com platform. Being a designer, I thought that if I moved to Wordpress, I could design a fancy template. So I moved my domain, installed Wordpress, and there my blog died.
This is what an old business partner of mine would always call majoring on the minor. It is so easy for me to become so involved in the details of what I am doing, that it distracts me from what I am actually doing.
For me this my great "potential killer". So much vision, so much destiny wasted on the details. Don't get me wrong details are important; brilliant design, intricate musical arrangements, thorough-well-thought-out plans are great. But if planning keeps you from doing, then it is a waste.
This past Sunday, I walked into band rehearsal and said, "Today, let's just keep it simple." And tonight we had a tremendous evening of worship. There were no big guitar solos or mind-blowing arrangements, just the band, the students and myself connecting with God.
In that spirit, I relaunch this blog.
What minor details are YOU majoring on?

basically that I can't be perfect. And I need to remember things better. And when I do that, I will be better at what I do; but more importantly I will be a better version of who I am. I major on the memory thing a lot. I major on the not being perfect thing a lot. Sometimes I feel like I can't do anything right. Singing doesn't get you everywhere (unless your Bono.)
