Pentecost 62 Questions Looking for Answers
It’s concert time and you have anticipated hearing the announced symphony. As you enter the concert hall it may be during the time the musicians are tuning their instruments, the audience in multiple conversations, each oblivious to the sounds of the other. They are all self-absorbed with talking, their instruments, listening only to what they think and feel. The massive sound is jumbled and intense. True, they are there for the symphony but those pre-concert moments are reflective of the world around us, individuals totally into their own personal world, like musicians tuning their bodies, their minds and their hearts to play in the world.
But then the concertmaster, usually the one known as the first violin stands up, calls the musicians together and gets them to tune to a specific key, the key in which the music has been written. He prepares the orchestra for the entrance of the conductor who will lead the concert. All eyes turn to the left side of the stage awaiting the conductor. As he enters there is the usual applause. He takes his place at the podium and a hushed silence awaits his first wave. With a down stroke the concert begins and the director brings the musicians and the audience into the courts of the composer’s mind and heart.
Questions. For whom are we playing the instrument with which we were born, our mind, heart and body? Who is the composer of the music we have submitted to, who is the concertmaster and what key is he getting us to play in? Is the music written for the heart? Finally, the director leading us, who is he? What courts is he bringing us into?
Jesus tells us "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God. Trust in me also. There are many rooms in my Father's house. If this were not true, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. If I go and do that, I will come back. And I will take you to be with me. Then you will also be where I am (John 14:1-3 NIRV).”
“Enter His gates with thanksgiving and come into His courts with praise (Ps.100:4).”
Next, His courts await. Stay tuned…….
