The music

I can't hear the music anymore.

That is one of the quotes from Joyce Landorf Heatherley's Silent September that just really, really resonates with me. I have been disturbed, and even frightened, by the fact that I have not been able to sing to God, for quite some time - even years now. When I've been in the presence of other believers who have wanted to sing, I try, but end up just being silent. Is it because I am too angry with God to sing? Perhaps, but this is not always the case. There are times when I have wanted to sing, have even yearned for it. But I just can't. And now I know why.

I can't hear the music anymore.
