After the Death Metal Show

Gracious God,

I thank you for the ringing in my ears that reminds me of the gift of music. The ringing reminds me not only of my finitude but also reminds me that the gift of music, when pointing toward higher spiritual reality, points me toward the edge of human and spiritual experience. And here is where I find glimpses and sparks of you. Help me to find your grace and beauty in the noise.

Amen.
