Do Difficult Things!

A few years ago I read a book by one of my favorite authors called 
Don't Waste Your Life (John Piper). 
I was motivated by it 
- along with some other things at the time - 
to make a list of life goals. 
I love lists. I crave goals.

One of my goals was to pursue music.
To listen to good music.
To participate in good music.
To sing and play.

And in someways I have done that.
I play guitar. Fiddle. I sing. And that's all good.
After a break of pursuing music I've started up again.
And I'm surprised to find I retained so much.
(I took almost a year off!)

Today I took (for me at least) a PLUNGE.
And I played for my church.
I refused a mic.
But it felt good to conquer something 
that intimidated me before.
