Raising hands during singing?

I used to feel judgmental or think that people are “charismatic” and that it was somehow not good..
But recently that view changed, I wasn’t afraid anymore, I understood the meaning of raising hands and clapping..
I felt more free to do it, and I felt less fearful, and because singing to God is something you do for God and also as a congregation..

Did I mention? maybe not..
but there was a couple[aunty, uncle] at church who started clapping and raising hands to one of the songs “Truly Worthy”.. and although you can say it’s cos of the music, but we do pray that it will be because of God that they did so.. and they let us feel more comfortable about doing it too.
Anyway, I found some cool blog entry/talks by Pastor Ko on the Riceregenerate website about that issue
Go have a read!
