Take 6
I just came back from seeing Take 6 at Yoshi's. What an awesome show! I never thought I'd see Take 6, my favorite singing group in the world, perform live. And what a tremendous blessing to be able to see them at an intimate venue. I tell you it was straight church up in there! The show was a great mix of them sharing their love for the Lord through their music and conversation in between songs. It is so inspiring to see people who love God so much and how God uses them and the talent that He gives them to advance His kingdom. I can't even imagine how many people they have brought to the Lord through their music. I'm sure a lot of the people in the audience today weren't saved and if anything, I pray that today's show planted the seed in them. What a way to evangelize huh?
On a personal level, it is no coincidence that I was led there today along with my brother and sister in Christ. A lot of their songs were about loving the Lord and staying strong through trials. The songs really ministered to me, especially because music in general draws me closer to God. And how appropriate for God to use not only music, but acapella music, the art that I first fell in love with when I got serious about music, to minister to me in this time in my life. In addition, seeing them use their musical gifts from God inspired me even more to use my musical gifts from God. God has been pushing me to write songs, to increase my skills as a guitarist and as a musician in general. The show has inspired me to be a good steward of the talents that God has given me and use them for His glory.
After the show they came out and started talking to people and signed autographs. It is so apparent that they are children of God by the love and humility they were showing to everybody. Tired as they were (they've been doing two shows a night since Thursday and today, they had an additional show at 5:00pm in Sacramento), they were still genuinely friendly and loving to everybody, including me who got their autographs on their newest album and briefly talked to them and thanked them for sharing their music and ministering to me.
God is good all the time!
