Saturday Challenge - Keep Your Eyes Open
I challenge you to keep your eyes open at least 75% of the time tomorrow!
For most worship leaders, especially when they're just starting out, their eyes are closed 75% of the time and only opened 25% of the time when they lead. Chances are, leading with your eyes closed is your default. It takes constant reminding and concentrated effort to keep your eyes open. And it's really important because 3 things happen when you don't open your eyes.
The 3 things that happen when you don't keep your eyes open while leading worship are:
1 | You focus on yourself
2 | You put up a barrier between the congregation and yourself
3 | You lead based on your own intuition and not what is happening in the room
Before you lead tomorrow, commit to keeping your eyes open at least 75% of the time!
If you want a little more detail on the 3 things that happen when you don't keep your eyes open, check out the post I put up earlier this week "3 Things That Happen When You Don't Open Your Eyes While Leading Worship!"
