The Power of Music is Immense
MUSIC has power. It can calm us, stir us, and lift our spirits. It can express both our joys and our sorrows. Common to virtually all cultures—past and present—music is a language of both the mind and the heart. Yes, music truly is a gift from God.
From the time we were born, we likely heard some form of music. Perhaps our mother sang lullabies to help us fall asleep. During our teenage years, we may have developed a fondness for music that stirred our heart. Even as adults, many of us enjoy relaxing music while driving or at home at the end of a busy day.
However, since music can have a powerful influence on the heart, we should be selective. Beautiful melodies, for instance, may sugarcoat ugly lyrics that make light of or even promote hatred, immorality, or violence—themes that no person of principle would find entertaining.
Among the reasons for the existence of music in virtually every culture [is] its ability to elicit and maintain human health and well-being. When we are singing, it is noted that our entire body resounds and vibrates. In turn, gentle vibrations help tissues relax and dilate, which may help to reduce pain.
Music may also reduce anxiety in pregnant women by promoting relaxation during labor and delivery. Dentists sometimes play soothing music to create a more relaxed atmosphere for tense patients. But music and song can do much more.
Because music enables us to express virtually every emotion and because it can have such a powerful influence on heart, mind, and body, we should accord this perfect present from above the deepest respect. Yes, may we use it both generously and wisely.
Based on this, why not check out a beautiful music out today.
