I had this vision during the Leader's Prayer Meeting today. Pastor was talking about how an orchestra always starts by tuning to a particular instrument before starting the concerts. I closed my eyes and pictured the scene. This is what I saw.
I saw the whole orchestra seated at their places with their own instruments. Then one of the instruments played a single note. All the musicians then played their own instruments and began to tune them to the single note that was played.
Once all the instruments were all tuned, the conductor walked out. As he walked out, some instruments were still tuning. He stood on his stall and knocked his stick on his on his music stand. At this point all the musicians stopped the tuning and looked toward him. He gave the signal and all the musicians lifted their instruments to the ready. He counted them in and then the orchestra began to play.
As he directed the musicians to play, the most wonderful music just filled the room.

I believe that we are each of us the musicians. Each one of us has our own instrument that God has given to us. This is our talent, our gifting.
The single note that was played as a reference note is Jesus and His Word. As we each, individually, tune our lives and apply our skills and talent as we are called to, we will all, in actual fact, be tuned to each other. All as one, all united by the Holy Spirit.
Some of us take more time than the others and continue to tune ourselves even as the great Conductor comes to the front. As soon as our Heavenly Father taps His stick, all of us are to pay attention to Him, and at His command, we will start to play our parts.
As long as we follow His leading and guiding, we will all produce wonderful music. We should lag behind His leading nor should we go ahead of Him. Either of these plans will result in a peice of music that is not as brilliant as it could be.
I am very obviously at the tuning stage in my life. God is very clear about the tuning that needs to be done inmy life.
The exciting fact is that I know that He has a greater plan for me. To prosper me and to give me hope. A plan, not to harm me.
Where are you?
