Hmmm, this got me thinking… Maybe God wants me to shut down the Mudcat and preach the Gospel instead…

If there is one thing I can say I know for certain about God, it's that God doesn't do things by accident. If anything could make God smile, it might as well be when we create. I think he gets a kick out of that.

GospelPicker, being a thoughtful man of God, I think you know all of what we're saying here. I think you know that you should not deny yourself the joy of picking. I think perhaps that your picking may be your most pure translation/reflection of God's voice.

Rev. Gary Davis never stopped playing, learning, teaching and preaching. He has moved me in ways that just-words never have. Not sure I ever would have heard his righteousness without that 12-string guitar.

As for your place here at the Mudcat? The Mudcat is like Life in that it is a mirror of you. It can be the most helpful and kind place in the world sometimes, and so can it be frustrating and pointless. It is what you make it… Do unto others my friend.
