Music of Life
My few years as a piano student under my grandmother's tutelage allowed me to know a little bit about musical notes. This morning, as I started my day with the Lord, my worries began to flood my thoughts. I know this is strange, but when things are going well, I begin to worry. You ask, "About what?" About when things won't be going well! It's crazy, I know!
An analogy came to mind of music and how unless you have high notes and low notes, there is no song. If all the notes were high, the music would begin to sound frenetic. If all the notes were low or in minor keys, the music would sound like a funeral dirge. Music and life must have both highs and lows for us to appreciate the contrast of each. Without both highs and lows, there would be no harmony or melody to music or to life.

Ecclesiastes 7:14 When times are good, be happy; but when times are bad, consider this: God has made the one as well as the other. Therefore, no one can discover anything about their future.
Gosh!!! This spoke to me and I don't remember that verse, so I'm going to commit it to memory. Thank you for taking a spiritual look at a secular lesson. Amazing.
