Working with Fusion sounds like a dream job.
It could be true.
Especially if this statement is based on fb pictures. You can think that we spend our days just hanging out with bunch of teenagers and having fun. We sing, we laugh and most likely we eat.
There is so much more work behind all of this, but I am just going to hope that you believe me.
Because instead of listing all proofs and details of what I'm doing, I would rather focus on what Fusion does to me.
Look at this picture.
Or this one.
You and me see the same thing. But I dare to say, you don't make the 'awww' sound like I do right now!
These people are so precious. I have the privilege to know stories behind those faces. I see a boy who came blushing, trying to hide himself in a crowd and now he is able to stand in front of others and sing a solo. Or a girl who went from being able to play only few guitar chords to writing and performing her own songs.
Doing Fusion means getting out of your comfort zone! Being an extrovert doesn't matter in here. We don't like to try out some things as well.
Conducting? (Never!) Sound? (What is this cable for?) Admonish someone? (I'm here just to smile at people.)
And yet...
Fusion teaches you a lot about parenthood. You feel so proud of "kids" and there are moments when you would like to kill them. You worry, you sacrifice your free time, money or energy and they don't even notice. :)
Fusion is a team work. It's like in that African proverb: "If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to go far, go together." However working in team might be difficult, it's always worth it. I call it a character growth booster. I've learned so much about myself and my reactions because of the interaction with our team members. It makes me aware of my natural tendency to 'my will be done' which is quite humbling. But also it brings joy when I discover that my gifts fit in and enrich others.
Fusion is God's work. You can invest in people but you can't change them. He can and He does. Seeing Him in action is huuuuge! My faith grows, so as my desire to see even bigger things!
To sum it up....Fusion has really some good effects on me, so I guess, I could call it a dream job :)
