God Wastes Nothing. Neither Should You -
As you ready yourself to receive from the Lord, remember that a transparent heart is a heart that has room to receive. Empty your heart to the Lord in honesty. He can handle whatever you have hidden there. Reality is He sees whatever you hide and loves you anyway – so why not unburden yourself and be a vessel He can flow through. As you receive songs from Father, remember this truth: He wastes nothing when offered to Him in honesty. He will not waste your sorrow…but will use it to bring joy in a song. He will not waste failure…but will use it to bring restoration and hope to others. He will not waste your pain…but will use it to bring healing and comfort to others. Allow the Lord the freedom to use whatever He will and wants as you receive from Him. Remember, take God outside of the box…and release yourself from any box you’ve placed yourself in today. -
And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.
Romans 8:28 NASB

Dennis,
Thanks for the tip about being real and honest and being open to the Lord. I am seeking to do that. I was at the Olive Branch Worship Conference and was there Saturday night and Sunday morning. God really worked in me over this weekend and I want to thank and praise God for how he used you to do His work in my life. He has healed me and is working in me in many ways. I am seeking God more on what He wants to do in and through my life. I am feeling pulled to do more with music and whatever he wants to do with that.
I want to be used by Him, not just be out there doing it on my own like I have tried to do in the past. God bless you. Thank you for being open to God and just having Him use you.
