I love to sing. I've loved it since I was a child. I even considered trying to make a career out of it at one point. But then I realized that all that went with that - late nights, traveling, etc. - took the joy out of it for me. Mostly, I love to sing when I'm alone so I can just sing my heart out. It fills me up. Today was not a fun day. I had to write bills, do laundry, chores, etc. The things we all have to do in our day-to-day lives. I wasn't feeling very joyful. But when I was finally done, I turned on some music and started to sing along. It totally changed my mood. One song in particular made me stop and close my eyes and join in till I was transported. And there I found God today. Here is that song.
"One Voice" by The Wailin' Jennys
You have a beautiful voice mama, I'm so lucky to grow up with such a talented mother - your love of music is what helped me find my own passion for music at such an early age - every time I play guitar, ukulele, or piano I find God in the love I have for music and in the love I have for you.
