Playing drums in the Bonny

I got to go out into the Bonny and have some time behind the kit today. The "Bonny," short for the Oratory of St. Bonaventure, is our combination music room/library/chapel. It's a special room in our house.

We have Morning Prayer and Eucharist in the Bonny Mon - Fri. And we usually burn incense when we're praying.

When I went out there today to play, the incense smell still hung in the room. I love it! When I sat down to play, and put on my headphones, the smell reminded me that our brothers and sisters the saints, who are in heaven, are praying with and for us. (We see this truth brought out by the apostle John in Revelation.) This is a comfort to me, that they have left the planet, and all its struggles, and have gone to be with Christ, our Redeemer--but they haven't forgot about us. They are praying for us.

And I had a great time behind the kit today. Got to play some Bonham.
