So...I just spent the last 336 hours riding over 5,000 miles in a 12 passenger van with 11 people for the sake of the gospel impacting the lives of 199 people for eternity. Yes! As a result of Level 3:16's 2 week tour 199 individuals indicated that they began personal relationships with the Lord Jesus Christ. Look at the Lord! Look at what He does when His people are intentional about sharing the gospel. I get completely blown away when I think about the fact that the Creator of the universe has this massive plan that I am only a speck of dust in...but yet still allows me to be apart of what He is doing. Not only that...but He allows what I contribute to actually impact the lives of others for eternity. THAT is extremely HUMBLING! A God that doesn't need me or any of us chooses to use "a DJ".
A DJ? So...I have come to the recent observation that......(wait for it).....I AM A DJ! Yes! The DJ for the hip-hop group LEVEL 3:16! You might be thinking..."yes KB...we were fully aware of that". But if I were to be honest...I could only say that this well known fact has only recently become a reality for me. As I reflect on the past two weeks and think about the entire summer mission as a whole and about the next year of doing music full time I realize that "I AM A DJ". How amazing it is to serve the Lord period! It seems even more unfathomable that the Lord would allow me to serve Him with 2 turntables and a mixer so that people would come from darkness to the Light. Yeah! C'mon Somebody! That is exciting!
Now that tour is over I am actually missing the long van rides in close proximity of my band mates as we ate, slept, talked, and laughed together. I miss the variety of pizza and fried chicken that we seemed to eat every single day. I miss the feeling that comes right before a show starts. I miss the conversations with people after the shows. I miss the pre-show "hype up". But most of all I miss that moment right before Megan would read off to all of the band how many people began relationships with Christ or who wanted to talk to someone about Jesus, that was priceless. Lastly, I miss the set up and break down process...wait...not really! :) Just kidding!
Thanks for your support. Please be praying that I would continue becoming confident in my ability as a DJ. Also, that I would keep my expectations high for what the Lord can do through 6 surrendered people and Hip Hop music.
Until my next heartbeat,
