I am a serious pianist. I eat, sleep, breathe, dream, live piano. I practice as much as I can each day and am always trying to find time to practice more ( I practice anywhere from 5-7 hours a day). I drive to Macon each week (3 hours one way) to take lessons from a Juilliard graduate and concert pianist. I have multiple dreams and goals regarding piano - my life centers around it in many ways. However, there is one thing that my life centers around even more than piano - and that is my relationship with Jesus Christ. He defines my life, He gives me grace and strength, joy and peace. He also inspires me in my musical studies - He IS my song. It is His calling that I follow as I pursue the passion He has placed within my heart. The surprising thing is, as I study the piano, I keep having greater insight into my walk with Jesus. And as I learn more about living the Christian life, I learn more about being a pianist. I never dreamed that they would be so interconnected but they are. At least for me. Maybe it is because they are the two most important things in my life. And that is what this blog is about - the lessons I have learned as I live out my passion for Jesus and my passion for piano day by day. It is my Heartsong.
