Whether I am teaching my students, accompanying the Central City High School Choir, or planning and leading worship at church, I feel like Eric Liddell in "Chariots of Fire" when he said "When I run, I feel God's pleasure." In my case, it would be "When I use my musical gifts, I feel God's pleasure." I have often said that I can't believe I get paid to do what I do!
