Dear God: Thy will be done. - Massive Worship

This is Sean Flynn from Massive Worship band again. After we play music at any kind of event, we realize how different the results were from the plan. Usually after we play someone may approach us and say that they liked our music. They use words like, "You guys are really good," or they might say "How long have you been playing together?" But after the Catholic Christian Outreach foundation day Mass last Friday, and after the two Sunday morning Masses at Our Lady of the Visitation, people began approached us saying things like, "That is so much more prayerful than we're used to," or "this worship was so anointed," and "that is exactly what I needed." Thanks be to God for blessing our ministry. I believe God is answering our prayer, that He simply using us as vessels of His love and that we would be nothing but instruments of His peace.

I hope God will continue to pour His grace into our lives and into our upcoming events. We are heading to Montreal for a youth rally on October 24, and we must rely only on the grace of God as we throw drama and games into our ministry for the first time. It is just the next climb in the roller coaster of Massive Worship, like the spiritual life in general. We've already gone up and come down from the training of musicians for NET, singing to the residents of a nursing home, switching vans four times, performing at a secular venue, a jam-party (where everyone jams out sweet tunes, not where you make various fruits into jams), and the mind boggling malfunction of countless instruments and speakers.

I don't know what will go wrong in Montreal, but something always does, according to our plans. I hate even to approach boasting, but adjusting to the unforeseen has been a consistent strength of ours. My point is, I believe we are successful in our goal of evangelization through music, not because of our talents, but because we desire unity with God's will. And He sure lets us know when our plan won't work, with just enough time to depend on His grace, and nothing else.

God Bless,

Sean Flynn
