>Ruth, I'm glad to hear of others with my problem...I can't seem to just
be in the cong. without wanting to get up there and play or sing, or
do anything (even flip overheads) I often find myself deliberatly having
to shut out critical thought (I call it "evaluating" haha) and I have a
hard time being as free as I would on the platform....makes me question
how much of it is a show, yet I know that when I'm leading worship, I am
worshiping, God is touching me, and is working through me to others....
I'm opening myself up to be pretty vulnerable here, so those of you who
already have this balance figured out, please be gentle :)
I sure enjoy this group.
