Wind Harp



A little sketch, Soft Pastel on cardboard of a fully ripe grass blade swinging in the soft wind



This little soft pastel sketch was drawn on a scrap piece of cardboard.  It stayed on the table for a few days because I did not feel the need to store it away carefully with my other pictures.
The Lord took this good opportunity to whisper in my ear.
I had thought of this drawing as being ‘just’ a grass, one of those that I had seen during my walks - fully ripe and glowing in the sun.  But the Lord called it His little Wind Harp.
Persistently - until He had caught my attention.

The wind harp sounds when its strings vibrate in the wind, bringing forth an ever changing, beautiful sound.


And I felt God speaking into my heart:

Be my wind harp, beloved, sing with my wind - the wind of my Holy Spirit. Open yourself and resonate with the sound of my heartbeat - carry it into my world; the sound of colors, the melodies of love and trust, my song of hope and truth. Swing and sing with my wind to the rhythm of my heart. 


Sing with my wind, my love,
sing with my wind.
The song of my summer,
the song of my rain,
bring in my harvest, sing with my wind.


There is a new song sounding in the earth, a song fresh from the Father’s heart. It’s the sound of the grass harp, the song of the harvest. The harvest that longs to come in! It’s the fresh dew of the new day – a gift from heaven. It’s the song of the bridegroom as he calls forth his bride.



This fractal design expresses the sound that is emanating from the Wind Harp in a beautiful way.
Sound of the Wind Harp


The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let the one who hears say, “Come!” Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life.

Revelation 22:17 NIV
