You won’t find any part of my life that doesn’t have music drifting around in it, from any number of differing genre’s… just depends on my mood.
I don’t plan on even entertaining the thought of a life that might be devoid of music, as that just seems so awful and dark. I liken the idea of no music to that of stumbling blindly through a darkened cave that runs deeply beneath a mountain, where no light can reach… ugh, I shudder at the idea!
From the time I was very small, music has been a great love of mine, often helping me to see through the darkness to where the light could touch my skin…
Now, the darkness isn’t so scary… thank goodness for music, and the way it touches one’s heart.
I’m especially thrilled that God loves music as well… in fact, I’ve a ticket reserved for front row seats at one of the most anticipated, sold out, and glorious musical performances ever known. If you’re unfamiliar with the concert I speak of, it’s when the gates of heaven open, of course! That’s one concert I won’t be missing out on!
Even though the prompt was not to my liking, the cookies are still yummy…
We can trace music all the way back to the beginning of time… from musicians like David, who wrote and sang, as well as others. I went and asked Google about musicians in the bible, and it refers to approximately 20ish different places in the scriptures that they were mentioned. I consider how many songs today are written from passages in this book.
While tracing the possibilities of life without music, it carried me all the way back to my childhood. How could I give up on the Muppet Show, Hee Haw, or The Barbara Mandrel show. Out of those shows rose some good ole fashioned 8 tracks like this one… https://youtu.be/7v8sDd7DSl8?si=R4UwwuS0OnU6rwo-
I have never been the same… Thank you Ray Stevens, from the bottom of my heart…
