Dear Reader,
Life is grand. I feel like I said that a couple weeks ago, but today I feel like it is amazing! It's great when you can finally see some progress! Anyway, before I start blabbing on about unnecessary details, I'll let you in on why life is so great. First of all, my Heavenly Father is incredibly smart. He knows how to answer prayers in the most unique ways. He loves me. I have to remind myself of that. He answered a long string of prayers today. A long string of prayers dating back a couple of months. How did he answer those prayers? Of course he did it through the most unexpected person possible. A person that has been there the whole time, I just needed to talk to them. It was incredibly obvious, actually. However, that's why it's great that Heavenly Father loves me. He loves me so much that he'll give me answers even when I'm being dumb about looking for them.
Another reason life is grand has to do with music. Starting on Friday, I have had several days full of singing which I actually understood what I was singing. Quick background from my life: I sing a lot. It's kind of how I express my feelings a lot of the time. However, I sing a lot of lyrics that I really don't pay attention to. A lot of times I feel like they are applicable to my life, but I don't give them any thought. However, I have been singing with the Barbershop Choir, the 7 Deadly Sins and Church Hymns that have hit me. For the first time in a long time, I've sung my lyrics. This means that I think, "Wow, I actually feel this way and I want to express these words and emotions." For example, I was singing at the Marriott Center Tunnel this evening, as is tradition. Tonight was different because I was thinking, "I actually feel like I want to say this." For once I was singing Gospel Hymns with the thought that they were true. Not true in general. They were true for me. They ARE true for me. "Then sings my soul, my Savior, God, to thee." My soul was singing tonight.
Summing up, music is great. I'm glad God blessed me with the understanding of it. I'm glad he knows me really well, despite the fact that I'm pretty bad at communicating clearly with him. He's really smart though. So, he takes care of me and my friends. Today he has really helped me see more clearly one of his children through his eyes.
