A Glimpse of Real Freedom and McDonalds....

Okay, Okay, so tonight the band and I led worship for the Youth at CRCC. I will be honest, after a long day of playing in the morning and then driving back and forth to Spartanburg from Greenville, the day gets a little long and exhausting. Tonight made it all worth it because the Lord showed up in an unexpected way! "Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom." Those are the words of Paul in 2 Corinthians which we like to quote a lot as worship leaders to express to people they are free in the Lord, and they are, Amen! Tonight for the youth and for myself, it was as if the Lord initiated something deep in our hearts. As if the Lord was asking us the question; "how free do you want to be in Me?" For some this was the first time they'd experienced true freedom in the Lord! I am excited about what God is doing in the Youth of CRCC, they are becoming militant in their worship of Jesus regardless if the music keeps playing, it's becoming an unhindered lifestyle for some! Dustin's message was simple and completely Spirit led, all about the Love of Jesus! SO GOOD!!!!

So on a lighter note as I left the church around 8:30 I found myself wanting to indulge in something I do about once a year which is splurge and get a Big Mac Meal from McDonalds. I was all excited as I was going through the drive-thru, I quickly got my food and proceeded to drive home. I got home and opened the box the Big Mac was in. As I picked it up I noticed the bun seemed a little hard and thought maybe they started toasting there buns for their infamous Big Mac. As I looked closer and noticed this brown wrinkled stuff sticking out the sides in which what used to look like lettuce possibly. I wanted the Big Mac so bad that I almost ate it anyway. I know, I know, right, how could I, but I didn't. I took it back, and it was if the people working knew they had given me the old Big Mac that had been sitting in their restaurant ALL DAY. Instead of getting upset I just told them the facts and in response they gave me two Apple Pies along with my new food for FREE! YAYA, like I need two Apple Pies. Needless to say my experience that I take about once a year to Mcdonalds was confirmed as to why I only go one time a year. So if you're a McDonald's fan and you get a burger with the hard bread, its probably old and not toasted!
