When I get in the car to go somewhere, most of the time I do not turn on any music, which, for me is a big deal considering how much I love music. I just feel like I have more time to think and process things in my mind in the quiet as I drive. There are times however, that I can't stand to think any more so I turn the radio up as loud as I can stand in and sing along to drown out those thoughts...
Today was a music day.
I won't bore you with what I was thinking about... trust me, you don't need to be exposed to the chaos that is my thinking tank. (You're welcome) I couldn't get my brain to stop!
Do you ever feel like you just can't tune out all the chaos in your life? While all those thoughts were swarming about, I reached down for the dial and turned up the melody that was playing.
"Oh great, a commercial... wait, I know that song..."
All of a sudden all those thoughts that were clouding my head went away as I began to sing "Holy, Holy, Holy, is the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY who was and is, and is to come..."
Worship, true worship, seems to have a way of making us forget about our problems we're facing and focus on what matters. There aren't enough thoughts to drown out the sound of your heart crying out to God. We were created to praise and worship HIM! I smiled as I realized that suddenly, all of the things that were bothering me, weren't bothering me anymore. God has a way of changing our perspective on things.
So today, anytime I start to feel weighed down by all the thoughts in my head... I'm gonna choose to worship instead. (Hey, that rhymes! :) )
Have a wonderful day!
