The comfort of our middle-C God
During college, while living in a boarding house, author Lloyd Douglas befriended a retiree. The man, a homebound former music teacher, shared a morning ritual with Douglas, who would walk down to the man’s floor, open his door and ask, “What’s the good news?”
Every day the man responded by tapping a tuning fork against his wheelchair and saying, “That’s middle C. It was middle C yesterday. It will be middle C tomorrow. It will be middle C a thousand years from now. The tenor upstairs sings flat, the piano across the hall is out of tune, but, my friend, that is middle C!”
If middle C’s pitch value isn’t exactly 261.63 Hz, then your piano needs to be tuned. How comforting that dependability is for musicians — and their listeners.
Like middle C, God is steadfast and reliable. In this fast-paced world, praise God for the good news he declares to us: “I the LORD do not change” (Malachi 3:6).
