Spiritual Horticulture of the Musician Part 2

                                             The Christian Musician is like a Tree Part 2

       Psalm 1:3 states, “And he shall be like a tree...”  The blessed Christian musician is alive and has a green leaf.  His green leaf which is his testimony and it indicates that he is spiritually healthy.  The reason he looks healthy is that he is healthy because his spiritual roots have connected to the rivulets of God’s living water.  These rivulets of water provide just the right amount of living water for spiritual photosynthesis to take place.
       Spiritual photosynthesis is the process of the making of spiritual “sugar” in the presence of God’s divine light.  Without this living water the Christian’s leaf would wither and would not be a spiritual channel for God to use for making the essential spiritual carbohydrates.  God needs musicians with a “sweet” spirit so they can be a source of growth for his trees. 
       As the Christian turns his leaf up to God’s light, spiritual photosynthesis takes place.  The Christian musician tree’s vascular tissue (xylem) distributes God’s living water to the green leaf, which is living in the presence of God’s light, and there life-giving spiritual photosynthesis takes place.  These life-sustaining spiritual Carbohydrates (God’s “sugars” are the essence the musician’s musical ministry) which are made in the presence of God’s divine light are means of grace which are distributed by the Christian’s spiritual vascular tissue (phloem).  The Christian musician’s phloem, which is the anointing of the Holy Spirit, becomes a channel for the sweetness of God’s presence and means of grace to flow throughout God’s spiritual trees.  This is what spiritual photosynthesis is all about.
