WHEN THE LORD SEES PEOPLE, DO THEY CHANGE?
When the prophet Samuel was called to anoint a successor King Saul, the Lord sent him to the sons of Jesse. One by one, those sons were processed before Samuel, so that Samuel could determine who it was who had been called by the Lord. Here is how it goes: Samuel looked on Eliab and thought, “Surely the Lord’s anointed is now before the Lord.” But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for the Lord does not see as mortals see; they look on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.” (1 Samuel 16:6-7) Those lines echo a familiar refrain in the biblical chorus. Again and again, we get the message that the Lord does not see as humanity sees. Our God sees things that we do not. God sees characteristics and gifts and strengths that we do not. We get the message that the Lord looks on matters of the heart that we humans sometimes cannot see. However!
This very passage, 1 Samuel 16, then claims a strange reversal of that principle! When the youngest son of Jesse shows up, the future King David, David is described in ways that don’t seem to appeal to the heart at all. Instead, David is described in ways that just might appeal to our human sight! After Samuel has seen most of Jesse’s sons, Samuel said to Jesse, “Are all your sons here?” And he said, “There remains yet the youngest, but he is keeping the sheep.” And Samuel said to Jesse, “Send and bring him; for we will not sit down until he comes here.” He sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and had beautiful eyes, and was handsome. The Lord said, “Rise and anoint him; for this is the one.” (1 Samuel 16:11-12) What is going on? Suddenly, David is described as being “handsome, with beautiful eyes!” Surely that sounds appealing to us! Here is what might be going on: When God looks upon a person, they actually do change. What if David was, indeed, a rather ordinary-looking person, not well-regarded, the last son of a long line of stronger sons? What if, suddenly, God looked at him? What if God turned God’s face towards him? What if, when God smiles upon someone, that person really does change? What if ordinary people become extraordinary when God chooses them? Yes, I believe that David changed when God chose him.
I wait for the Lord; my soul waits for him; in his word is my hope.
From this week’s lectionary Psalm 130:4
In fact, I believe that each of us changes when we realize that God loves us. For some of us, that realization, that God might actually choose us, and love us, is a hard thing to realize. The heavy and hard criticism of our backgrounds and cultures has weighted us down with despondency. Yes, some people have grown so bitter and despondent that they cannot hear that loving voice of God. Instead, they need to hear from God’s ambassadors, God’s messengers, God’s angels. They need someone to speak God’s words to them. That’s where all of us come in. All of us are meant to be, from time to time—if not all the time!— God’s angels to others. There are many people who simply will not feel “handsome (or pretty), with beautiful eyes,” until someone tells them that. When we do tell them that, those words will seem like the words of God. And they will be. The Lord sees more deeply than humans do. But we have the same power to speak divine love and acceptance to our neighbor. We have the power to change their lives, and maybe even to change their very appearance! When we speak good words to people, we really do change them.

LENTEN R EFLECTIONS BATMAN AND THE SOUNDTR ACK OF LIFE By Canon Dale Adelmann One of the most memorable conversations I had during the six years I worked in Beverly Hills took place with the COO of a production company that, at the time, was in the midst of making one of the big-budget Batman movies. I will admit that I particularly enjoy a good mystery, be it a book or movie, especially if it isn’t bloody and the good guys win. Our conversation began with light pleasantries: “How’s work?” “Who are the big-name actors starring in the movie?” The conversation shifted to be one that was far more thoughtprovoking when my friend said, “Well, of course, the soundtrack is the most important element in the success of a movie.” Honestly, I thought he was joking: for an action flick? From the look on his face, it was clear that he was absolutely serious. As we continued to speak, it was easy to admit what any moviegoer, musician or not, actually knows: the soundtrack of a movie intentionally manipulates the audience to enter more deeply into the emotions of every moment in the movie. The soundtrack can calm the audience, tug at one’s heartstrings, or make one’s pulse race. The conversation reminded me of the trick question that the great professor-mentor to several generations of American church musicians, Robert Baker, posed to my church music seminar in graduate school, “What’s more important, the tune or text of a hymn?” “The text, of course” we all responded. Wrong. Why? Because the most profound poetry or prose in the world can be made to seem silly and vacuous by a truly bad or trite tune. By contrast, words that are neither very literate nor even theologically sound can seem majestic and even profound when set to great music. Now Dr. Baker’s point was not that words don’t matter, because of course they do, and he would have been among the first to get annoyed by a poor choice of words within any liturgy. He was also not suggesting that we should select music to intentionally manipulate people’s emotions. What he was acknowledging was the indescribable ability of great music, paired with equally rich texts, to move us to a new dimension in which we can catch a glimpse of the awesomeness of God, if even just for a few moments, and our responsibility as church
musicians to search for, create, and employ such music and texts in service of the Church. What is the function of music in your life? Is there a particular soundtrack to which you limit your experience? How often does music reach the foreground of your consciousness? Or is music typically a constant background, which requires or demands little or none of your attention? Until quite recently in the history of humankind, the only way to experience music was in its live performance. Today, music is very often only a sort of pleasant background accompaniment to the other ‘more important business’ of life. This exclusive approach to music can prevent us both from experiencing
contemplative silence, on the one hand, and from fully engaging with music in a way that can transport us somewhere more profound, on the other. Lent is a time when, even for me as a professional musician, I tend to retreat yet more intentionally into the music, to listen more closely for whatever waters of life may be found through it and the texts that the music bears. Perhaps Lent and Holy Week could meaningfully be such a time for you, too? Here are two upcoming ways to do that. If you have not yet made plans to hear the Choir of Men & Boys from New College, Oxford, England (Tuesday, April 4 at 7:30 p.m.), you are in danger of missing one of the greatest choirs in the Anglican branch of the Church. They will offer a wide variety of profound music and texts that is certain to enrich all who want to have ears to listen. Hearing such a choir for the first time literally changed my life, and I encourage you to attend (for more information and tickets, see stphilipscathedral.org/concerts). I also commend to you our annual Meditation on the Passion of Christ, with Carols (Sunday, April 9 at 4 p.m.), which, like all worship services, is absolutely free and open to all. I have participated in this service 27 of the last 30 years, and it has never once failed to be one of the most meaningful worship experiences of my entire year. May the remainder of your Lent and Holy Week be characterized by holy, intentional listening.

SPIR ITUALIT Y QUIET MORNING GATHERING Saturday, April 1 9:30–11:30 a.m. In the Lanier House Whether you are a beginner or long-time practitioner, or simply curious about a new practice, we hope you will join us for a quiet morning of centering prayer. Centering prayer is a practice that helps us rest and be grounded in the presence of God. Led by Cathedral parishioners Will Traynor and Jan Wyatt, the morning will include an introduction to centering prayer, along with sessions of sitting and walking prayer. Coffee and light snacks will be available. Please RSVP to Cathy Zappa, czappa@ stphilipscathedral.org or 404-365-1043, and mark your calendar for our final Quiet Morning of the season on Saturday, May 6.
Our adult series is exploring the concepts of charity, service, and poverty; considering new paradigms relating to charity; and inviting reflection on our own practices relating to these areas: what seems to be working, what doesn’t, and where do we go from here? The series is led by Canon Cathy Zappa and others. Youth and EYSeedlings have an age-appropriate program that mirrors what the adults are doing, so that family conversations can continue during the week. Childcare is provided. The program is free, but dinner is $6 for adults and $4 for children with a $25 maximum for families. Children 3 and under eat for free. To RSVP, please contact Lisa McNamara, lmcnamara@stphilipscathedral.org.
