today i worshiped with my daughter at her church in downtown charlotte, nc. i decided late saturday morning, after hurricane hanna blew through wilson, that i'd make the 3 1/2 hour drive from wilson to charlotte. i accompanied christy to uptown (the name of the church) very early in the morning today as she had to practice with the other members of the worship team. christy sang"Light of the World" during the offertory today. i had to leave the sanctuary a couple of times during the practices, as i was overcome with emotion, reflecting on days gone by and wishing she were closer to me and her mother. the lord has blessed christy with the gift of song, and this sunday as she has done on countless other sundays she used this gift to prepare the hearts of those at uptown to worship our Saviour.
