pilgrim in progress

One of my new favorite bloggers who is a worship leader at Buckhead posted this the other day - I thought it was beautiful:

I’m in verse 2 and I look to my left and am hit like a blind side pick and roll.
Swaying on the front row was a guy I later learned was named Matt.

Standing in front of him was another guy named Jefferson.

It was a moment that stands out above all else in my 11 years of leading worship.

You see Matt and Jefferson were worshipping God, together.

Literally.

Jefferson has severe cerebral palsy. He has little, if any control over his body.

Matt was standing behind Jefferson.

Holding Jefferson.

20 minutes.

Dancing with Jefferson and singing at the top of his lungs.

Jefferson was singing too. I think could hear him.

And it was the most beautiful song I have ever heard.
