There Is More: My Response To Seeing Hillsong In Concert

God is continuing to work on my heart, and heal me from things of my past.

There Is More: My Response To Seeing Hillsong In Concert
Taylor Markee

I was able to attend a Hillsong Worship concert over the weekend with my friends, and it was one of the greatest things I have ever experienced.

I have been to one other worship concert in my life, and it was not anything like this one.

Being able to see Hillsong in the flesh was amazing, and to be able to just spend the evening worshipping was much needed. Being able to surrender my fears to God is so freeing.

I have spent years hanging on to things that I should not be carrying anymore, and every time I go to a worship concert, I learn to let go a little more. God is continuing to work on my heart, and heal me from things of my past.

It has been 7 years now since my life changed forever, and I still see God working every day. It isn't something that is going to change overnight, but I know with a certain amount of trust, He can turn things around for me. I am so thankful for the way that I have seen Him move mountains in my life.

God continues to amaze me with His grace and I was able to witness so much of it at the concert I went to. There is something beautiful being in a room surrounded by thousands of believers all coming together for one reason. Jesus. It is not often when you can just worship, and not have to worry about the people around you.

My hope after this concert is that lives were changed, and people can proclaim the name of Jesus in their workplaces, homes, and all other places. Jesus is worthy of all praise, all the time. I will forever remember seeing Hillsong Worship, and how I felt throughout that whole concert.

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
