    I have always maintained (at the risk of sounding New Age) that God loves music, and that all creation is a song. So when someone shared this link with me, I was amazed to hear this.

    This link will take you to a page where a man recorded crickets, then slowed them down to be 'human speed'. Essentially, the ratio of a cricket's lifespan to a humans. There are harmonies, and bass parts. It is incredible.

    When I first clicked on the link, I would have guessed the "voices" were a human choir, humming or "ooohing" -- that is truly amazing.

    I can't help but wonder, is the higher melody the females, and the baritone and bass lines the males? What an awesome testimony of God's workmanship!

    Reminds me that, in Ephesians 2:10 where the major translations use "workmanshiip," the word is the Greek poiema, which in traditional Greek has meant "masterpiece" for thousands of years.

    It reminded me of a soundtrack to a classic film.

    So, harmonies are in nature. It isn't just cultural conditioning.

    That is truly beautiful. Have you heard the planets "sing?" I can't remember where I heard it, but there is a clip of space sounds and all the planets have their own "song." If anyone has a link, please post it. It's so amazing how creation makes music to the Lord!

    What is more beautiful than the sound of a babbling brook or a breeze through pine trees?
