Ever think music could do that?
Music, many types. Rock, pop, heavy metal and so on...Ever think that just one song can change you? Without knowing it every time you listen to music your mood changes. Just an observation at my average dinner table. If my dad puts in a CD during dinner these things change with the song:If the song is fast, my bro starts eating (just a tiny bit) faster. My little sis will start talking faster, etc.
Other observations from a sunday (the old ones, when everyone just hung-out during 2nd service):
If it's a 'happy' song, everybodies talking and laughing, having a good time.
If it's a 'slow/sad' song, everybody calmes down and you hear --------.
If it's a Christian song, everybody either a. mouths the words or b. they all sing out loud or even c. silence.
Pastor Vincent says that we shouldn't be emotional christians. But ever think thats impossible? Sure, sometimes we can do that. Just stick to God no matter what. There are still times that shake us so much we slip and drift out to sea right? Ok, imagine God is a bouy. All alone, far out to sea. We are drifting and then we see it. We grab hold, glad for the safety and comfort it brings us. Then a huge wave comes along and we lose grip and are pulled away. We are able to swim back, but we know there are bigger waves soon to come.
One of those waves can pull you out only a little or it can also pull you out a lot. Music is that thing that makes our sea of emotions calm or crazy. Next time you listen to something, think about what you were doing before and see if there are any changes. Ever think music could do that?
