New Seasons / Carl - drums & life

It's an interesting season for many. 2011 has started with a bang and it seems everyone is trying to navigate new waters. I recently saw the movie "The Chronicles of Narnia, The Voyage of the Dawntreader" - The thought of setting off into uncharted territory seems to be the theme of our time. Well... maybe it's always been that way. It just feels stronger now.

The music biz is in a major flux../ time of shifting... / Everyone I know seems to be in the dark about how things really work anymore. I still love being a drummer/ percussionist/ "minstrel", but ,man, I really don't like the business of it! I wish it could only be about the art & ministry of our callings. -- Sorry if I dream too much! ...anyway, we still have to be smarter and flexible and find options to "navigate the seas" of the business of what we do.

Bottom line... I put my trust in the Lord. Psalm 118:8 It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man. He will lead, (navigate), and I will follow. I choose this! I pray you can too.

As Jesus said, I paraphrase -- "... All of the law & commandments is summed up into these two. Love God, and love people." I pray, that in all I do in my life, that my course is set on this journey. It is my hearts desire. Now I just need to keep my hands steady on the wheel of this ship. -- Hope to see you all on the high seas! Blessed Sailing, Carl
