🎼🎵🎶🎶 RESONATING FAITH
The reason that singing in a room with good acoustics is a much more enjoyable experience than singing in a soundproof room is that, in a soundproof room, your voice does not return to you. It goes outward, is absorbed, and does not come back. In a room with good acoustics, however, what you release returns, and your voice sounds that much more full, complete, and powerful because of it.
It is the same with faith. A faith that we never release or let go of is like singing in a soundproof room. It is a rather underwhelming experience and feels painfully flat and empty. When you hold loosely to your faith, however, and choose to let it go, all while trusting that it will return to you in a more beautiful form, you experience the phenomenon of resonance. It does return eventually, only it returns in a far more dynamic form than the one you released.
Don’t be afraid to let go. A faith that you cannot release is a faith that will fall flat. But a faith you can release, and let go of, is a faith that will always return and resonate.
