I am a living instrument of Jesus Christ. I don’t have any strings on me, or keys, or cymbals, but I do have two hands which I use to play for the Lord. I can only say that I have a passion for music right after I tell you that I have a passion for God. I have tasted what the music of this world is like, and I was never satisfied. When I first aimed foolishly and blindly at music, I never knew what my target was from the inside out, until I met Jesus. I found my worth not in music, but in the Creator of music Himself.
—“Full name for the musical instrument the Piano is Piano Forte, directly meaning Soft Strong as a Piano plays both tones.” Like the piano, I play both tones in life, too. I am weak, inconsistent, lazy, anxious, and many other darker things that God knows how much I have been. And yet, this is the only way for me to emphasize Him in my life, in this weakness, in this madness, I have a God who is stronger and greater than my imperfect self. He is my only genuine strength, because I have none. (But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. - 2 Corinthians 12:9)
—“The word ‘violin’ originates from the Latin ‘Vitula’; The word ‘vitulare’ meant ‘to sing or rejoice’” I somewhat see myself metahporically as a violin, with God as the violinist and violin-maker. When in tune with Him, my life is in an amazing and luscious flow of melody, but when out of tune, I am moving and living to a sound that doesn’t make any sense. He alone can tune me back, and like the violin, I will “sing and rejoice” with every passing second that I am alive and breathing and able to serve Him, no matter what I will stumble upon. (But rejoice insofar as you share Christ’s sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed. - 1 Peter 4:13) If there’s something sad that I do know, that is, to devote everything that we have and everything of who we are to something or someone undeserving of it. There is only One who deserves that much; Someone who bled and died for you (you have never shed that much blood for someone who may not even love you back, believe me, no one else could’ve done that for you) His name is Jesus, and I’d love to tell you more about Him. :)
Let’s talk! If there’s anyway I could help you today (or pray for you), please do let me know. My ask box is open :) GOD BLESS you.
