The Instrument (3-1-11)

Good morning and happy Tuesday. When you go into a music store and see the rows of instruments, I can't help but think about people and God. The instruments are nice and pretty to look at. And just about anybody can make some sound come out of them. But a musician knows what and how to use it the right way and to bring pleasure to others. The instrument itself can do nothing apart from the musician. It can only be there ready to be used. And when it is played, the musician takes the bow, not the instrument. I see us so much now, especially in today's more self centered life styles as that instrument, except that we're trying to blow our own horn. God has plans for each one. A part in the big show that He leads. We all have to do our part. The musician can pick any instrument to play. Today it may be you. Are you tuned and ready for what God is about to do in your life? Let the best of you be used for His glory. The world needs to hear His song. In love always.
