beautiful things.

so one of my jobs is to book and travel with the two ministry teams that go out from the college, crown college to be exact. one of the teams is a musical drama team and the other is a contemporary worship team. it's kind of like being a road manager for a rock band but not nearly as cool since they usually play youth rooms instead of clubs. anyway, the contemporary worship team recently lead worship at a senior high retreat at a bible camp. the weekend was filled with outdoorsy things, camp food, a phenomenal speaker (his name is james grout if you want to check him out) and some really great times of worship.
one song that really hit me over the weekend was the song 'beautiful things'. it is written by michael gungor and performed by gungor (the band) and it is one of those songs that is so simple and so complex all at the same time. here's the chorus:
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us
aren't those words gorgeous? to think, the same God who created man out of the earth wants to make our lives as beautiful as He's made His creation. neat, huh?
