Come to think of it, being a human being is hard....lolol. I'll tell you why I say this.
Just yesterday, I went in to the studio and found a surprise guest visitor - one of my most preferred keyboard players! He was there..........listening to my song and trying to get ideas for what to play on it. First of all, let me just say WHAT AN AMAZING HONOR......i didn't even know he would be coming through.
But something wonderful happened as we sat there through MANY different takes (brain storming on what would possibly sound nice, what wouldn't, what highs and lows to use), I realised how time flew by unnoticed and the productivity that happened was absolutely amazing! All in all, it was an awesome session.
Well, I went home and began to think of how hard it is to juggle what you think is right and being humble enough to listen to other people's opinions. It seems to be the HARDEST line to straddle mainly because listening is mostly good...however, its tedious! and if you are listening to the wrong opinions, its even worse - Time consuming and Time Wasting!
It got me thinking of life in general and the voices we listen to......Once again, it summed up my whole life's argument - Human beings are LIMITED in every way but thank God for the Spirit. He does not consume or waste time....He doesn't lead us into a ditch. He guides us into the very places we NEED to go and leads us into ALL truth. His is the only voice we can trust.
Today as I sit at work, Im thankful that He's been directing this project and leading me to people with VALUABLE insights. He's ordered my every step and Im glad for what Im learning and experiencing through these times....ALL the musicians Ive gotten to work with are absolutely top notch and by God, Ive scaled through many walls BUT i need to learn to listen more - not to the voices of reason but to THE VOICE of the Spirit.
Yall have a fab day and practice listening...
