MUSIC

I just read a TON of comments on someone's profile about music and which types of music glorify God. I have an opinion on the matter - a HUGE opinion actually. But that's not what this post is for. I just want to make a quick point...

God doesn't anoint songs - He anoints people.

I think we all agree on that point. I've heard it preached many times, and I have thanked God every day for His anointing to create music and His anointing for life in general.

This is where my brain gets a little bemuddled - why is it that if God does not anoint songs, but in fact anoints people, that we have to argue about where to draw the line? Since each of us are first and foremost accountable to GOD - and if we are following His commandments, living each day according to His word and His direction, His leading, His guiding - since we are promised the steps of a righteous man are ordered of the Lord... isn't it safe to assume that God's plan for each of us would be different at times? And that plan could include paths in life that would also differ?

While I may not personally approve of everyone's lifestyle - it is up to YOU to decide what you want to do with your life. While I may not like the career path you choose, or the movies that you watch ... or the music that you listen to or create ... that does not mean I have the right to approve, disapprove, or at worst insult or put down your taste or decisions.

Anyway, those are my two cents if there is anyone interested in reading it. And as I said, there's more than likely more to come - a lot more. Oh and I only tagged a few people because I thought you may be particularly interested in reading my not so humble opinion :)
