Yep. It's me. Back again. Just like the bad dollar bill (used to be a penny, but inflation gets to everything). With another one of these revelations that everybody figured out last week. Bear with me for a moment anyway.
     My wife and I do daily readings and meditation. Today her reading was from Max Lucado and it struck a resounding chord in me. "God wants you to listen to his music".
     The analogy is one where he starts taking "music" away. Out goes the rap, R&B, rock, classical - even C&W (disco was already long gone - praise be).  
    When I hit bottom, there was no "music" left in my life. All the things I thought were good were "taken away". Friends (C&W), happiness(rock), contentment (classical). All harmony gone - because of choices I had made in my life. I was left in a soundless, soulless void with only one of two ways to choose. His music, or to remain in that soundless expanse of emptiness - my very own custom made personal hell on earth.
     I chose His music. The ageless songs of love, joy and gratitude. I will be forever grateful to Him for taking away my music and replacing it with His. May He grant me His Grace to sing it for as long as I am here.
In Jesus's name.
Nuff said,
Amen
