For a short time now I've been unsure about the path that I am taking, unsure if what I'm doing will actually lead me to where I want to go and the people that I want to be with. Then I watched something that made me realize that doing things that are in my heart are much more important than making money or getting a degree in order to make more money. All the things I was doing in my life may look small now, but God is watching, and He is pleased. Zechariah 4:10 says "Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin, to see the plumb line in Zerubbabel’s hand.” This is in reference to the temple being built, it also says "This is what the Lord says to Zerubbabel: It is not by force nor by strength, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. 7 Nothing, not even a mighty mountain, will stand in Zerubbabel’s way; it will become a level plain before him! And when Zerubbabel sets the final stone of the Temple in place, the people will shout: ‘May God bless it! May God bless it!" (v6-7) God will make level paths before me and will cause many people to bless my works because I am a daughter of God, a temple to his Holy Spirit. The same is for any of those who know Jesus and have been born again through his blood. (1 Corinthians 3:16)
How does this relate to harps? I was thinking about being too afraid to tune a string because it might pop. But you have to tighten the string to get it in tune. Don't be afraid of the pressures your dream might lead you into, they might be what you need in order to sing your song, and God will always lead you and protect who you are.
