All of my musician life I've wanted to write a song. I listen to artist's like Brooke Fraser, Hillsong, Bethany Dillon, Vicky Beeching and I wonder if it's really that difficult to write a song. I have tunes and melodies in my head and prayers on my heart...but I sit down and neither of the two collide. I have prayed the scripture in Psalm 40 that says "He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God...". I taught myself to play both the piano and the guitar and have been singing "Jesus Loves Me" since I was 18 months old. I can only come to the conclusion that when He has a song for me to write, it will be all glory unto Him, not something that will glorify my gifts or talents.
"Let the treasures of the trial
Form within me as I go -
And at the end of this long passage,
Let me leave them at Your throne."~Keith Getty "Jesus Draw Me Ever Nearer"
