David Crowder

A few Sunday's ago was our farewell and send off to Rob and his family.  I figured it was going to be packed (because it's always packed when he's there) so we got there a little early.  We had both the kids with us this time and we were just kinda hanging out by our seats waiting for the service to start.  I looked up and saw this guy that looked vaguely familiar... in passing I said to Gaetan, "hey, that guy looks a lot like David Crowder."

Well, a few minutes later this David Crowder look-alike takes the stage and then begins to play one of two guitars on stage and leads us in worship.  The guy probably looked a lot like David Crowder because it freakin' was!  I couldn't believe it.  David Crowder just played his guitar and led us in some of the most moving worship I've experienced in a long time.  Mars Hill just continues to blow us away and keeps feeding us what we need and letting us hear what we need to hear.

At the end of service I was taking Duder to the bathroom and Gaetan had Lucy and there was David trying to get through the masses.  As he hurries by, he double takes comes back, pinches Lucy's cheeks and says, "Oh look at those cheeks!"  And then turns arounds and leaves.  hahaha.  We get used to the fact that people only pay attention to our adorable children.

It was quite the experience to be able to worship like that.  Thank you Jesus for giving us exactly what we need, when we need it.  Your timing is perfect, as always.
