I am so thankful God decided to make the human able to partake in and experience the art of music. I think this was one of His best ideas. I mostly like that through music we worship Him. There is something in my soul that ignites when I listen to good music... Sometimes, I long to be more apart of it. Sometimes, I tear up because I can feel what music communicates that words cannot express. I often experience general revelation when listening to music. Sometimes when I play music with others, I get so overjoyed because I imagine in my mind what heaven music will be like.
I anticipate partaking in angelic composition.
Heaven is going to be constant jubilation. I imagine a 27-part harmony where anyone who is tone deaf sings whatever notes they can get out and it fits perfectly into the harmonies. Without these random and unsure notes, the harmonies would be incomplete; therefore all of God's people worship Him even more because they see that people are all made differently, with a purpose that is reflected in the grand scheme of eternity. I imagine each day there is a new theme. One day, middle eastern... the next day, electronica. the next, folk. and even though you may have a personal preference or inclination toward a certain type of music, you love each day the exact same because, at the root of your musical engagement, you get to worship the Creator in a place without suffering or pain or sadness, where God is revealed in His fullness and the only way to respond is to bow down and worship. I imagine that nothing else matters but God, and every inch of our souls feel complete in His presence because we are doing what we were created to do and that is why the music is perfect.
