ADVENTure Day 13 –

I don’t remember the movie, but I remember the line.  In New York City, a confused man asks someone else “How do you get to Carnegie Hall?”  The response was, “Practice, practice, practice.” 

I love listening to my daughter practice her violin.  I get to hear her improvements from week to week.  Finally, I go to her concerts where I get to hear the music with all the instruments together.  When they are all following the instructions of the conductor, it makes for some beautiful music.

Psalm 150 tells us to praise the Lord with all sorts of different instruments.  There is a great variety of ways to praise God, but one conductor.  Personally, I don’t have much musical talent, but, as a sound man at church, I get to mix the different sounds from the instruments and balance them. 

Where does your talent lay?  Can you praise the Lord with an instrument, or your voice?  Can you praise the Lord with your words, or your artwork?  Like me, can you use your technical know-how to facilitate praise?  Pay attention to the conductor and follow His lead to do your part in the great concert of praise.
