Clair de Lune compiled by Enigma


BEING STILL

T
hese are without doubt stressful times we are living in and it is easy to get caught up in the madness and the anxieties that seem to assail us with such frequency. So good then to withdraw from the maelstrom and seek the Lord in the stillness, drawing from Him those resources which we lack in ourselves that enable us to ‘overcome’ this world. Music is also God’s gift to still our fears and our rages and De Bussy’s ‘Claire de Lune’ is one of the most beautiful compositions for piano. Take five minutes away from whatever is bothering you right at this moment and make this a time of listening not just to the calming notes of the music but to another Voice, of One who cares for you and who longs to comfort and restore you. ~GOSh.~
