The instruments used to compose our favorite songs are a gift from God.
1. Guitar
Having attempted to play the guitar for many years, but only doing so poorly, I can honestly state that I am at once impressed and intimidated by the excellent guitar plyaing I hear eminating from my headphones. The variety of rhtyms, tones, and sonic effects that acoustic and electric guitars can produce is hypnotic. Then, there are the epic lead guitar solos like those from The Eagles' "Hotel California" or Led Zepplein's "Stairway to Heaven". Thank you God for putting this instrument into the hands of your artists to help inspire us all through creativity.2. Drums
It always amazes me when the drum line of a song stands out. This seemingly gruff, loud, and obnoxious instrument is supposed to simply provide some structure to support the timing within each song. However, when listening to artists like "Live", I find myself eagerly anticipating a double-snare drum hits interspersed throughout songs like Lightning Crashes. I realize the drum line is an important element that accentuates points within the song. Thank you God for making a brute instrument contribute to the power message of songs from my favorite artists!3. Vocals
These professional singers are amazing. Right now, I hear Norah Jones' smoky voice vibrating through my skull and mind. The peace her voice inspires helps me to remember your calming presence is always nearby. Thank you God for placing these angelic voices here on earth so we can enjoy their heavenly sounds immediately!What about your favorite musical instruments?
