Thou Shalt Not Covet

We had a service about the 10 Commandments this weekend and the one about wanting what you don't have caught me. This is such accurate discription of so many production people I know. "If I only had this piece of gear, then the mix would fall into place" or "Wouldn't it be great to have 9 cameras instead of 5?"

It can be so easy to blame lack of gear for why we can't pull something off. Or to be always asking for more equipment, even though we may not be using to the fullest, the gear we already own . It can be like a curse to go to different churches or to a concert and only see all the gear you don't have.

We should celebrate what equipment we d0 have. Let's use it to the fullest, with gaff tape if necessary. Let's plan for the gear that could take us to the next level, but let's stop complaining about all the gear we don't have. We have been entrusted with God's resourses, however large or small. Be faithful with it.
