I have been in some type of choir for as long as I can remember, sometimes more than one at a time. The older I've gotten, the more I've seen how being in a choir has shaped my life and changed it for the better. My life would be drastically different if I wouldn't have been involved in a choir; so different that its hard for me to even imagine how different it would be.
Here are just a few ways my life would be different if I wasn't a choir kid.
1. I wouldn't have 99% of my friends
I've made new friends and reconnected with old ones, but I wouldn't have any of them if it wasn't for being in a choir.
2. I wouldn't have my heart for travel
I went on "Choir Tour" with my church's youth choir for five years. I've been all over the south and to Montana. This world is so beautiful and even though I've only been to a few states, I can't wait to see more of God's beautiful creation.
3. I wouldn't have a heart for missions
Serve God, love God, serve others, love others.
4. I wouldn't have met the best people and role models
The people who shaped me into the person I am today. I wouldn't be where I am today without all the beautiful people leading me.
5. I wouldn't be as happy as I am now
The laughs are sweeter and the smiles are bigger. Thank you, God, for making me a choir nerd.
