Symphony or cacophony?

Music is one of my greatest passions.  Those who know me best know I dearly love music...singing, playing, writing, directing, listening and learning.  I was blessed with a musical family background.  My Dad sang as Church worship leader for many years.  My mother also sang beautifully.  My four brothers have music abilities.  Two grandmothers played piano.  My present family sings and plays various instruments.  Music has taught me much about theory...and life.

I wonder....what would happen if music was limited to only one part being sung...or one instrument played...or one voice allowed...or one dynamic observed?  It would not be very effective or positive.  For music is built on many facets joining together...in unity...yet with harmony...creating incredible messages and movements as God intended. 

I wonder...if one of the greatest gifts God gave us is music...bringing many parts together to create the fullest representation and delivery of this glorious gift.......how much more important is it that His children join together to accomplish even more?

I wonder...what would happen if we stopped comparing, bickering, degrading, ignoring and competing...and began offering what we have been given to the greater design and purpose God intended?  What if we loved more, listened more, cared more...encouraged more...became more like Him and less about ourselves? What kind of music...message...praise...glory and honor would we present for Him?

Personally, I prefer a symphony instead of a cacophony...anytime.  I sincerely believe He deserves that...and so much more.♥~thl
