Music....

Joel and I love music... all kinds of music. It is amazing what music can do... make us cry, make us dance, make us happy... sad, angry..... it is pretty powerful. I know that nothing can replace the time in the Word or in prayer... but I do have to say that these last few days when I have had my mind flooded with other distractions or frustrations... turning on a song can completey change my mood. I really think that it is a stress release for me. Since I can't justify a trip to the spa everytime I feel a little irritated, I think a good way for me to get through some of those moments is by putting on some music.
