Triggers of the senses
July 25, 2018
A trigger in psychology is a smell, sight, or sound that triggers feelings connected with an event or person. That can be good or bad. A song can be a powerful pull toward God, who He is and what He has done. One example is ‘The Holy City’ a grand song about heaven. That song can lead us into worship. Motivate God focused action.
Or some songs can transport us back into devastating and wrong relationships.
You choose what music you will listen to. Yes, the words matter. Is it uplifting? Does it lift you higher? Could you sing those lyrics to a respected relative? Silly question, but maybe not. Give it some thought. Sound is a powerful trigger. Choose wisely.
