Last night I went to see Hillsong United with some friends from church and school. It was a spiritual experience to say the least. Hillsong recently put out a new album titled Zion. I was shocked by it at first because most of the songs have such a different flare to them than I am used to but as I continued to listen to it in preparation for this concert, I started loving it more and more!
My favorite moment from the night was the song Oceans (Where Feet May Fail). The lyrics really speak to my heart and the ways I feel God calling me to do some crazy things that I need to completely trust in Him to accomplish. It is by far my favorite song from the new CD and the girl who sings it killed it last night! "Killed it" as in she did good...
Worship concerts never cease to amaze me. They always feel like a little slice of eternity and really refresh me and get me excited about worshiping the Lord. I also felt like God is continuously tugging on my heart and calling me to go abroad and this feeling was reaffirmed last night.
It was also cool to hear Hillsong play some of their old classics and really hear them in a new way. I can't tell you how many times I've sang Hosanna, or Mighty to Save, but last night, they felt different to me. Almost like brand new! That is how worship should be! Never mundane or boring or "old." God calls us to bring Him our best and we should always approach the throne with fresh enthusiasm to worship the King.
I had so much fun worshiping with my friends at this concert and can't wait to start incorporating some of these new worship songs into the services I help lead.
