Harmony

November 15th, 2009

When I was in school, I took a music theory class.  One of the subjects that we discussed a lot was the importance of dissonance in music.  Dissonance refers to a combination of tones, that when played together, create discord.  For example, it might be playing a C and D note at the same time.  Played together, these notes create tension within the score of music.  A song that only contained musical dissonance would bMusic Notese disastrous.  You would walk away from hearing it covering your ears in disdain.  However, when you add dissonance to a musical piece, but then resolve it, by bringing the notes back together in harmony, the tension is dispelled and the resulting harmony sounds even more beautiful and melodic.  Dissonance resolved highlights the harmony. 

As in music, so in life.  In the book of Philippians, the Apostle Paul addresses the need for unity and harmony in the church.  Truthfully, our harmony can be so easily disrupted.  In our relationships things get said, feelings get hurt, and the relationship becomes full of tension.  And if the situation remains as such, the end result is disastrous.  However, just like in music, when discord (or dissonance) exists, and is then resolved, through repentance and forgiveness, the resulting harmony is even more beautiful.  Think about it.
