Tim i found it liberating to just do what the Lord wants you to do i work within his boundarys and yes i attend church and enjoy it.I love the
people and i love hearing the word and worshipping the Lord even if others are still bound up with traditions thats not my walk thats theres.My focus is to do what the Lord wants me to do.There
have been times i
have said no to the pastor he does nt understand why i choose not to lead the worship.i query him as well regarding the idea that its not just performing a function because there is a need our
hearts have to be in the right place so that the Lord can use us but he did nt understand where i was coming from and thats okay because
of that i just said no until my
heart is right i am better not being involved in leading.But i am happy to be an encouragement to others in the worship team i havent wanted to be the leader i
have done that in the past.So my focus
has been just the singing and being part
of different worship teams i think the Lord
has other plans as the groups i am in seem to be
changing at the same time i am aware that i do nt to worry about
change as the Lord knows whats best.I used to be quite comfortable leading the music but that was before when i was operating in my own self confidence and pride.The Lord did such a huge
change in my life that i lost my self confidence and that is not a bad thing at all as my spiritual growth
has been incredible.The big
change was my identity moved from me and what i could do to knowing who i was in Christ and that he is my strength and confidence.Now i know that without him i can do nothing in fact i am dependent on his empowerment through his holy spirit all the time in everything.In the weekend i was asked to lead the music at another church i attend multiple churchs although i attend two regularly one
has services in the morning and one
has services in the evening so the two do nt really clash.In the weekend i was asked to lead the music its been two years since i did that and i was worried on how i
would go.All i can say is that it went really well and because i stepped out in Faith the Lord really blessed the morning to the congregation.The difference is knowing that i serve the Lord with the gifts he
has given me but my
heart has to be right and when i do it in his way it builds up the body and it brings glory to him.May the Lord continue to show you what he wants you to do even though others may not understand your reasons i just want you to know that you do nt
have to pull away completely just work within the boundarys that the Lord gives you and do nt feel pressured by others expectations to do anything that feel uncomfortable.Be involved just as you feel lead by the holy spirit even if it is in a very minor way take small steps.regards brentnz

has liberty to work on you.Because he loves us he will discipline us so that we do repent
of our sins.The downside
of living a walk like that you are a hypocrite until you admit your sinfulness the holy spirit can not help us because
of our pride.The second part was you talking about disciplining the flesh personally you cant discipline that which is corrupt our
hearts are deceitfully wicked we need new
hearts no amount
of effort on our part will transform our
hearts that is the work
of the holy spirit he
changes our
hearts so that we no longer desire to sin we
would rather serve the Lord with all our
hearts instead.brentnz
