t was Wednesday and I got the call about talking to my pastor about the changes on worship team. I thought that probably it was that they were going to use younger people on the team. And then the next day they made me show up on my time and the pastor basically told me I could no longer do worship team. They were changing the styling of the team. That essentially meant I was too old anymore. It was kind of funny because I don't look my age or act like it. We talked about alternatives to my departure. It did not really hit me until today and today it really hurts. After 27 years of being on television, singing solos, being in choir and worship team it is done. I am so angry. I am so hurt. The very church mottos are completely against what I am feeling right now. You matter? Ha, I did a quality job and suddenly I am not relevant. Your story is important. I have been there over a quarter of a century. I am not important.
I know that currently if they go this direction I don't want to be a part of it. The quality has gone down and I knew essentially I was living on borrowed time for the last few months. It does hurt. I just wonder how long my husband will get to be a musician. I know church is more than music but doing something well and getting kicked out because of your age just hurts. I trust You Lord that it is under control.
Job 31:4
