Music calms my soul. It puts words to my joy and
heartache. Music lifts me up when I am low. When I am overfilled with
blessings, music accompanies my emotions. Music can soothe the soul or rev up
our excitement for life.
“Never underestimate the healing power of listening to
your favorite music on full blast while dancing around the house like an idiot.”

That’s another benefit!!! Music can make us feel
younger and more vibrant.
You know what music really is?
“God’s little reminder that there’s something else
besides us in this universe; harmonic connections between all living beings,
everywhere, even the stars.” Robin Williams
I’ve never heard a living soul say they hated music.
They might not like Rap or Zydeco, two of my favorites, but everyone loves some
kind of music. And that’s our connection.
Well, music has come to my rescue again.
I’ve been in a slump. No know reason. No diagnosis. No
medications. Just one of those natural slumps. When I fall into one of these
traps, I get out the music. And God led me to the perfect song for my mood. It
was sung by Wynnona Judd, “Rescue Me”.
What
do you do when you’re scared inside?
When
all of your feelings just seem to collide.
Emotions
just seem to let go,
All
of your tears always follow.
All
of these things that you’re feeling deep down;
And
you realize that you’re calling out loud:
I
love Thee.
Rescue
Me.
Shine
Your light, lead me home.
Lord,
all I need is Your Love.
I
love Thee.
Rescue
Me.
Shine
Your light, lead me home.
Lord,
all I need is your love.
Rescue
me, rescue me.
I
played this over and over again. Singing. Crying. Healing those frayed emotions.
Oh,
it’s Love’s sweet salvation
With
Christ the Blessed Lamb.
We
can get through anything
As
long as it’s You and me.
Hope
this song brought back some memories and maybe some healing. Music is powerful.
I’ll be sharing more. If you have a song that speaks to your heart, please
share it with me.
Blessings,
Angela
One dear to my heart that gives me so much hope & joy is "My Redeemer Lives" by Nicole C. Mullen. And a close runner-up is "You Raise Me Up" by Josh Groban (& many others)? " I am strong upon Your Shoulders, You raise me up to more than I can be." ♡
