Music... Simple but Powerful

I love music.

I could end this blog right there. I mean I volunteer at concerts, my car is very rarely quiet, when it is quiet songs are playing my head, I sing to myself. I just love music. God made music for a reason.

Reasons being that we can worship Him with our mouth, heart, and well your entire body. Also He uses music to reach to the deepest parts of our souls and minds, touch parts that we didn't realize we had.

God uses music. Music is life. The very air we breathe, our very heart beat, the train, the tapping of my keyboard. It's all music. We walk and talk in rhythm. Our life is rhythm. We talk in pitch for the most part.

Stop and listen... what do you hear... I can tell I hear the song, "Tonight," by TobyMac. A great song.

Do you just listen to song or do you REALLY listen to the words?

Those very words can change your life. I believe God uses music to tell us something.

That's why I supported my local Air1 Radio in Kansas City. Even though it wasn't alot, it's honestly a sacrafice for me, and that's what I felt God telling me to give. I volunteer for Air1 Radio. If Air1 Radio didn't exist, I wouldn't have met the people I have, the bands that I have. I wouldn't have designed or sketched out ideas for them. Then MIKESCHAIR wouldn't have created a design that was inspired by my design.

OR

The situation I was or am in right now, God wouldn't have told me to deal with it, and make sure what I am doing is for the glory for him and nothing else. He wouldn't have prevented me from suicide or cutting by playing, "How He Loves" by David Crowder Band. His love is just so overwhelming and my cup is overflowing with his love and yet he has so much more to give.

So next time your favorite song comes on the air or on your Ipod, really take the time to listen to the words and maybe see what God is trying to tell you. Maybe even pray that song. Like I pray this song called, "I Will Go" by Starfield, perfect when you are truely opened to being used by God no matter where he wants you to go.
