Memorization

From the time I was in 4th grade until shortly after high school, I took violin lessons.  I drempt of being in the symphony.....But when I graduated....I felt I didn't have to play anymore, so I quit taking lessons.

Yet, when I would hear music being played....I could see how the notes were played and I began to crave playing once again.

After many, many years later, I've started taking lesssons, which I so dearly love!  My teacher is a precious, patient individual who is always challenging me. 

Since my lessons have begun, my collection of music has grown and my bag is about to bust at the seams....not to mention...it's quite HEAVY!!!! UGH! To carry it around increases my load....so I have decided to attempt to memorize the music. It's the only way to lighten my load. 

My teacher, my mentor, has memorized his music too.  He plays with such delight and his notes speak volumes to me.

In the same way......I am attempting to memorize Scripture so that as I live my life...His notes will speak volumes....Can you hear the Music?
