The Bible and Music

When Cantor Giora Sharon came in to share about his life, it really opened my eyes to his perspective. One of the things he said that stuck with me most was “you don’t choose to be a cantor, it chooses you.” This is true for all aspects of life. I believe every person has a calling, or something they were born to do. And I feel as though God reveals your path to you as you take on life. Giora really showed us that no matter how hard life is, there is always something you can do to escape from it. His whole family came from cantors. Looking back, I wish I asked if he felt pressured to be a cantor at all. I wonder if he did? I feel like if my whole family did something, I would feel really pressured to do the same thing. This shows that people shouldn’t be afraid to be their own person. I enjoyed hearing his story.
