A Christian friend has reminded me recently of the importance of humility in my role as a church musician. This is always a work in progress for me and I’m slow to learn, but it has also reminded me that this is one of the most important attributes of any church musician. Jesus always lifts up the one who humbles him/herself in front of the Word of God, and brings down those who consider themselves above the need for his grace.
