What's your ministry?

Worship leading is, of course, a ministry in itself.  But as any leader will tell you, God gives you a sub-ministry, a specialism if you like.

I've observed other worship leaders and Christian songwriters, and they do indeed have a specialism.  Where do you find the one for you, you may wonder.  Exactly where the other leaders, pastors, elders, missionaries and apostles find theirs.  Isaiah 61:

   ¹ The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
   ² To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
   ³ To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified. (KJV 1611)

Every Christian is all of that, but think about it, we are all a little bit of God, and mortal, we can't be expected to be everything in full measure.  So God gives you an annointing in one particular area.

Brian Doerksen's, for instance, is "bind up the brokenhearted"

Robin Mark's is "proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord"

Matt Redman's, I believe, is "beauty for ashes"

You could add to this, you get my point.

Yesterday, I think God was telling me what mine was.  I need confirmation before I state it here, but it was surprising.  I had some precious meandGod time in Rhos, sitting in a place where you can see the North Wales coast from Prestatyn to Colwyn Bay, really getting my feelings into perspective...

I'm sorta at a loose end today, no singing lesson, and a stretch of about 8 hours before a Praise Night, glorious anticipation of what is to come.  Oh, and I decided I would mention my feelings about it.  I decided I had nothing to lose by being honest, and saying it out loud.
