I'm a person who believes that music has the power to reach the very core of our being to move our hearts and bring comfort when nothing else can. I sympatize with St. Augusting of Hippo who said that music is prayer twice; first in the sounds, then in the words. I have, therefore, been listening to music in an effort to come to understand why God does things like allow a tsunami killing millions. Or, why he allows some babies to wake up from their naps and others don't. I've been listening to the song,"The Prayer" by Andre Bocelli with the hope that someday we will understand.
