It's so easy to just be swept away by the tune of a song and not pay attention to the lyrics. I remember a friend of mine telling me she felt suicidal when she was listening to Jars of Clay, a Christian rock band. HeAring that baffled me at that time as a young teenager and a non - Christian. Jars of Clay brand of music is akin to mellow and melancholic rock. Without paying attention to the lyrics which speaks about the love and grace of God (which will minister to us), it is no wonder people will feel suicidal when when they are already feeling melancholic.
Lately, I caught myself paying more attention to how the different instruments in a song sound. My ears are more in tune with the way the bass guitar. Being so busy at work cause my mind to constantly think about stuff when i am not occupied. It was yesterday when I realized how a change in focus to deliberately put all distractors and thoughts aside that I could focus on worshipping God and letting the holy spirit minister, build, edify and heal.
I pray that I will never be sidetracked from the reason why I join the worship ministry and start learning the bass.
