| | So y'all keep talking about how much you dislike particular worships
songs. My question is Have you done anything about it? You have three
options and I am going to list them in the most logical order (although
one and two may be reversed depending on your place in life right now).
1. Bring it up with the leadership, whether it be in IV or in church.
Let them know you are feeling this way and that probably others are too
and try and figure out what to do about it.
You could
a. change the songs
b. bring it up to the fellowship and see how they are feeling.
2. When these songs come up, ask yourself why you are really so against
them. Of course they may not be the truth, but why aren't they the
truth to you? They could be perfectly true to others. Why not make it
the truth by making a concious effort to evoke that feeling or action
in your life for the next week?
3. Do nothing but please continue to complain about it on your blogs,
so that people can read your whining mess, agree with you and add to
the number of people who whine about it on their blogs.
No one is forcing you to participate in these songs. Why not, instead
of singing, take the time to pray to God asking him to let you feel the
emotions the song is evoking. Or maybe just pray for someone in the
room or something.
As for being able to replace Jesus with anyone's name in the song and
having it work just as well. Of course you could do that, but you
don't. The point isn't that this may be true for others; the point is
that it is true for Jesus.
Why don't y'all just research and suggest songs to sing or even write songs of your own, if you are that hard pressed about it.
My work here is done.
