It's amazing how beautiful music can be...it can shake the tears out of you in a split second. And when someone plays it, or sings it, and it flows out of them so effortlessly...so naturally...that is a person who has it right. That is someone who is in a very beautiful state of themselves.
It's such a shame that music for many musicians has become an execution of skills rather than a celebration. I mean, if you go to a church and you watch them praise, whether or not you believe in their God, you will know that music to these people isn't something that they are merely "capable of". Music to these people has to come out of them whether they like it or not and they sing because music is beautiful. They sing, not caring what comes out, but rather only knowing why they sing. And i've noticed people with deep church backgrounds (such as southern baptist churches, cheezy praise band churches...etc) who end up in the performing world tend to have a special quality to their playing. Whether God has blessed them with that or not is unknown but their sincere experiences with shouting love through music is known.
