Unbelievable!
Want to know what an incredible opportunity is and how amazing God works? I'll give you an example:
Tonight Celestial Sounds quartet (members: Katherine, Brandon, Anthony and myself) were coached by Dr. Eugene Dowdy (department Chair, associate professor and conductor of the Orchestra at University of Texas in San Antonio)! We had an unbelievable hour and a half of incredible coaching. Dr. Dowdy is helping us prepare for the upcoming benefit concert and mentioned that he might continue working with us for the rest of the semester. I didn't realize how much I really missed great ensemble coaching with a college level teacher until tonight! It brought back great memories of years gone by under the instruction of musicians at Rockford College Music Academy in Illinois. I am grateful to the Lord for opening up this opportunity for us not only to learn but to learn together as a team. I was getting discouraged coaching the group and playing myself at the same time...You can't always hear what's going on when your ear is up next to your own instrument (plus I'm NOT a professional).
Lesson for all of us who put our faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ:
NOTHING is too big for God and He knows all our needs and will fulfill them in His own good time!

God is so good! I'm so happy for you and hope you will profit much from Dr. Dowdy's instruction.
Wishing I could have stuck around longer, but looking forward to hearing the improved Celestial Sounds play....

Thanks Jess! May our God bless the work of ours hands. We are also praying that He will bless that evening. What an opportunity for God's people to show love for one another as a testimony to the lost.

What a blessing to read of God's awesome power in your lives. Isn't He so good? May He continue to bless you richly that you may glorify His name in the upcoming concert. I sure wish I could be there to hear you!
Many blessings,
