Melodies and Harmonies

As I sit silently, alone, listening to beauty I contemplate the simplicities of life. Melodies and Harmonies move me in ways that nothing else can, except God. When I hear the calming presence of wind blowing through my surroundings, I like to think that God is whispering to me softly and gently. When I hear the waves crashing onto the shore I can't help but to be in awe of our King, the one who made all things, the one who is bigger than all of our worries and our anxieties. When I hear soft piano and the singing violin, I'm brought back to a place of sweet surrender, a place of peace. He is the One that brings me to a place of deep insight, a place where I can once again bask in the reality of how life should be lived. He brings me back to serenity, a place where I can only look up to Him. Why is it that we tend to leap out of faith so easily? Why do we easily forget that Christ is in control and is the Lord of the Universe? All things are possible in Him, all melodies and harmonies that we hear all through out the day are from Him. He made us, He made to world, the universe, isn't that enough? In those melodies and harmonies He is whispering sweet love notes in our ears. We must listen, we must take it in, cherishing each note. We are to listen intently as He is leading us in ways we never imagined. We are His children, He is leading us with melodies and harmonies, drawing us nearer and helping us to see His greatness and power.
