I am a songwriter too. I never had the ability to compose until our family went through a difficult period. That’s when I started to read the Bible.
It turned out that I’m a psalmist... a musical Bible of sorts. Holy Spirit downloads
the melody first. Then as I’m reading the Bible, the lyrics fit into the correct song.
Exactly, trials can do that. And it is good to get your feelings out in a song. It’s a relief and gives clarity. It’s also a mysterious process. I’ll look forward to seeing your songs on Freeper, if you have recorded them.
