My Hammered Dulcimer
There are various Hammered Dulcimer postings from YouTube of different tunes, and NO I'm not playing any of them.

The Hammered Dulcimer

The hammered dulcimer is an ancient trapezoidal musical instrument played by striking the strings with wooden hammers. Originating in the Middle East about 2000 years ago, English soldiers brought the instrument back to England after their failed attempt to conquer Persia during the Crusades about 1000 years ago. Dulcimers have many names in many lands: santur in the Middle East, yang q'in in China, hackbrett in Austria, zither in Germany, and cymbalom in Hungary. The name "dulcimer" is derived from Latin, meaning "sweet sound". Hammered dulcimers were popular in England during the reign of James I, when the Bible was translated into English as the King James Bible. The dulcimer was mentioned in the Book of Daniel 3:5 among other instruments "..the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all kinds of music..." The dulcimer was later mechanized to become what we now know as the harpsichord which later evolved in the piano.

A great prayer

A Stich in Thyme had this posted and I decided to post it as well.
Heavenly Father,
Humbly I ask for you to watch over the infirm, guide the confused and give peace to those in turmoil. I thank you Father for my sobriety for without you, it would not have been possible. I ask for your will to be the guiding beacon of all men. Please watch over the believers and non believers for we are at your mercy. I pray for the safe keeping of our creatures who come to mean so much to many of us. If my burdens will spare my children, friends, strangers or enemies, please use me as a vessel. I lay my confusion, my troubles & my fears at your feet. If I stumble Lord, please show me how to rise again for there are days when it seems impossible. If I fail, show me courage to try again. If I cry, remind me it too shall pass in it's due time with the gentle whispers of promise. And when I hurt Father, I will not ask why me but thank you for sparing those I love. If I anger Lord, temper me with your patience and quiet me so I may listen to the spirit. When I loose sight, remind me Lord ~I know the way back to you and though the road is hard and long, it's well mapped & brightly lit. I am troubled by so many who suffer with illness, both physical & mental. I ask a special prayer of comfort & peace for them. I ask for strength Lord so I may walk in light that you choose to shine on me. Let me bear up the weight of burdens that may fall upon me. Today is especially difficult for me Lord as I am struggling with so much pain & finding it hard to find my strength. I ask for your will to watch over & guide me through this difficult time.
In Jesus name,
Amen
