The Keynote
Who are you tuned to? Are you tuned at all? Have you ever taken the time to get tuned or to decide what note you want to be tuned to?
In the life of an orchestra member these are serious questions. Imagine now yourself sitting with your instrument, preparing for your performance. You do a few scales to warm up, you angle your music stand toward the conductor, and then at the appointed moment, you play.
Now it is conceivable that you and every other member of that orchestra have spent literally hours and hours practicing for this performance. You have gone through every sequence hundreds of times -- the tough ones a couple hundred. You know every fermata by heart and every trill by memory, and so do your fellow musicians.
However, in all your preparations, you forgot one very important fundamental detail. You forgot to tune up with the keynote player.
In an orchestra it goes like this: the keynote player sounds the keynote loud, long, and strong. Everyone else listens carefully and then plays the same note, then they tune up their instruments until the note from each instrument comes into perfect pitch with the key note. Then and only then can harmonious music emanate from the assembled players -- no matter how many hours they have practiced.
So, who are you tuned to? Anyone? Have you taken the time to decide that Christ is your keynote player, or are you simply tuning to whomever happens to show up in your life? Or maybe you want to play your own pitch no matter what anyone else says. If so, may I ask you how well your performance is going?
Are you in harmony or discord with those around you? Your family, friends, co-workers? Do you follow this one and then that one -- splitting yourself between pitches, hoping somehow you'll sound right some of the time?
If so, may I suggest that taking some time to tune to the keynote may be the answer to your frenetic searching for the good, harmonious life. Seek Jesus out, let Him be your keynote player, tune yourself to Him, and watch harmony abound like never before.
