Inspiration…but we need to sleep!

Marvin is in the process of working on his album. We have a recording studio in our home so he can record as the inspiration hits him. Only thing, it hits him sometimes at night when the girls and I are trying to sleep. In my eyes, nighttime is for sleeping, however for some musicians and producers, it’s their most creative hour. Some of the greatest hits were written while the world was sleeping.

Musicians have no concept of time, so as the melodies and inspiration come, they are up writing and recording. It's 11 pm and I hear music in the air! This would be all fine and dandy if we still had a basement. We live in Texas now so there is no such luck.

So what solution have we come to? We haven’t. And it’s perfectly fine to agree to disagree until we find a happy medium, if there is any such thing in the world of music.

I know it's only for a season and it isn't every night. Actually for him to be able to do anything pertaining to music is a miracle within itself. In 2008 he was in the fight of his life (I'll share his testimony in my book) and playing the drums or working in the studio was not an option.

So, what I hear now is not just Marvin's inspiration, but proof that Jesus still heals.

I can complain or be grateful. I choose the latter because complaining about the negative things causes me to loose sight of all of the wonderful things God has done for us.
