Momma didnt raise ALL fools, Bro..

I never say NUTHIN about music, 'cept in our church where I have some
authority, and in our family, where my son, thank God, seems to hae
some sensitivity to tell, for himself, what is worship, and what is,
in his words, "disco".

He's a wicked preacher though, and we have to shut him down as it
regards the "christian music" his sister listens too sometimes.
Actually, Im more interested in what she picks to sing herself, when
she does solos.
The boy actually asks the waitresses whether they've been baptized in
Jesus' name. :) God is good! He's made my son a lot bolder than me
sometimes, as we have prayed for him. (but thats another story)

Music advocates have been known to advance arguments one way or the
other (and get mired in big battles).  As for me and my house, we will
serve the LORD. 

I dont even know what music really is :) I know how it can make you
feel some things, or HELP you adjust a mood. That seems to be somthing
worth bothering with, if you dont get all wound up in it :)

BTW, I play keyboards, and organize specials and stuff... Not totally
ignorant, but just unwilling to go down that road.

Lord, send us a drummer that we can fight with to be quieter!
