Honestly

I had the opportunity today to perform in my local district honor band. It was an intense audition process for me, and I was very blessed to make it in. The concert was today, and it went truly spectacular. The music was amazing, the execution was beautiful, and I could feel the music running through my veins.
The music was so beautiful, I felt it move my very soul. The tubas with their rumbling pedal tones, harmonizing spectacularly with the brassy french horns and baritones. The woodwinds with their orchestra-esque trills and fast moving melodies. The trumpets with their prominent, bright, and incredible tones. The percussion with their rhythms that make your body dance whether you choose to or not. The concert was truly amazing.

I can't possibly conceive of music like that, of a concert like that, of such soul-touching brilliance, and NOT believe in God. Only He could inspire someone to write music like that, and only someone with a divine, all seeing hand could have inspired men to create such means of making music as that.

May you all have the opportunity to experience what I experienced tonight.
God Bless.
