The great ones let it all hang out... They Let Loose
I am a fan of good music. As a kid I remember "special numbers" being a big deal at church. One time at kids camp when I was young and much less mature than I am now. A young girl got up and sang along to the song "People need the Lord." SHE SANG ALONG... usually if your signing to a track you sing just to the music. It was so bad and we were so mean the whole camp started to giggle and laugh and then someone in my row started to clap... we all clapped so loud and so hard they just shut the tape off. It was awful! (I don't know why I shared that with you except that I was reminded of it as I was writing this.)
Great music, great anything really is all about watching people let loose. I love watching great people do what they are the best at. Great Preachers... are so fun to watch. I would love to see T.D. Jakes live (that man is one of the best). I could watch anything at The Olympics, (I watched interpretive dance for an hour... the hoop was unreal.) Pavorati, Bono, The TING Ting girl, Pink, Matt Redmond, Hillsong anything all have one thing in common... They can let loose.
Phil does it here about half way through...
U2 Brings it on Letterman last week...
Mute Math is probably my Favorite live band I have never seen check this out!...
Everyone in this video Lets loose- Watch as Hillsong United Brings IT!...
I am convinced that God is looking for people who will LET LOOSE. Let loose in worship. Let loose in life. Let ourselves fully commit to be lost in what we are good at and the moment we are in. I show you musicians because they are easy to visualize when they are letting loose. But what does it look like for you and me to let loose in our daily lives? I felt like I let loose last week a few times in my message. E said when I held up Goliath's head, "I felt like I could see it." Then I asked when does she feel like she let loose. She shared with me a time when she was counseling someone after church and I totally saw what she was talking about.
Ever let loose while making a sales call? Maybe when you were writing some copy? How about when you were building something and when you were done you knew you gave it all and it was so worth it?
The great ones... The really exceptional people... The people who are known as Specialists and Masters and Rock Stars... They Let loose! They are consistently on the edge of their gifts and abilities.
Tomorrow... Let Loose, see what happens. Sunday... Let Loose In worship, experience what God has for you.
