- In January 2010 as I was trying to wrap up the song selection for this new project, I really felt like something was missing. I felt that this project needed a foundational theme to tie all the songs together. That is when my producer, Greg Bieck, and I decided to once again open up God's Word and see if the Lord would inspire something new!! Sure enough we were directed to Proverbs 12. After reading through the passage a few times, I was comforted with the amazing thought that My Father would continue to sustain me and protect me as I hold fast to His Word. But, I need to continue to seek His voice and pay attention to His words...
NOT REALLY A CLEAN FREAK
Posted By:Justin Unger - 03-18-2010
I would consider myself a clean freak... kinda. I am the type of guy that can't function correctly at times when things are a mess. I feel like I am constantly having my children clean up their rooms, or the living room play area etc... I even catch myself cleaning the desk top of my computer every moment I can find. Believe it or not, my clothes are sorted by style and color in my closet! LOL! I do find it interesting however that sometimes I choose to bypass certain places like my car, the kitchen sink and my desk top at the office. But I am truly concerned as I read through Romans chapter 8 with another place in my life that is constantly a mess!
WOW!! 28 years Old...... As I try to look back on 28 years of life on this planet, there seems to be only one question that comes to my mind. And boy is it a convicting one... "How many of these years can I truly admit were spent reflecting Gods glory?" Although it seems kind of pointless to dwell on the past at times , I feel motivated to look back at some of the patterns I have allowed myself to fall into. Pride, Ego, Humility, Surrender, Depression, Confidence, Rebellion, Excitement, Rest, bla, bla, bla... (It could go on and on) I have been through so much and have learned so much that now all I really desire is to know God more intimately. Thats it...
So it has been exactly four years today that I made the big move from Nashville Tennessee as a full time Recording Artist to Prescott Arizona as a full time Worship Pastor. And as I sit here and wonder if I could have planned it out any better, I laugh! LOL! God, you are so good! It reminds me of a little picture on the bathroom wall at my grandma's house that reads... "If you want to make God laugh, tell Him your plans." Yet still I find it ironic that I continue to allow myself to fall into a pattern of planning and mapping out all of my days...
