Well, if any of you go to SRC and you happen to be there today you would've witnessed me totally killing the Spirit. As many of you are aware I am part of the praise team at our church and if you didn't know that now you know. So this morning was like any other Sunday I arrived late for practice, but I did practice the music for the service. So I was ready or so I thought.
Well, the moment of truth came and we got through the first two songs. The next song is None But Jesus in the key of B. Now I normally do not start off the songs that is normally done by Pastor, but since I was supposedly more familiar with the song he let me start it off. Big mistake. So here we go the previous songs were in Bb(that's B flat for none of you that don't know anything about music) and I'm playing Bb on my guitar, but in my mind I'm in the key of B so when I change chords to E and F# they don't seem to go????? I look up and Pastor is saying B it's B and I'm like B I know I got this my guitar must be out of tune I mean how could I mess up right??????? So this goes on for like an eternity I keep playing Bb and keep trying to change to E and F# just torturing the congregation. I look up and people are grimacing Bethany is just staring off into space with a puzzled look Pastor is saying B!!! Then it dawns on me I'm in the wrong key so I very casually slide up a half step to B and all is restored. Whew.... I was just waiting for Benji to say, "I knew it he is not a man of God!!!" Oh Mylanta what a morning and the lesson learned????? Pastor needs to learn guitar and start off the songs. I'm giving lessons right now Pastor so give me a holler!! LoL oh I mean L!!!

ReplyDeleteGreat description of a funny moment, although it wasn't too funny when it was happening. Actually, I've caused my share of those Spirit-killing moments.
