Psalm 92:3
Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery;
upon the harp with a solemn sound.
Dana's fingers lovingly flew across the strings. The guitar
took on life beneath his fingertips. As his eyes closed and his head tilted
back, the man and the guitar became one. The music that came forth was not from
the fingers or the instrument, but from the heart. The music was the rhythm of
creation. The beauty and majesty of God's love flowed through the air. When the
music played, God's presence was not to be denied.
Psalms is full of musical imagery. Throughout time, music has
been used to express the divine. God loves harmony and purity of tone.
Together, we can become a melody of beauty and praise. We can become the rhythm
of creation by affirming who God created us to be. Let the music of the Lord
fill your heart, and get carried away in its beauty and power.
Prayer: If there is any discordance in my life, Lord, remove
it from me. I want my life to be harmonious and beautiful, reflecting the
divine music which You alone compose. Play me, Lord, that I might be Your song.
Amen.
