Cory Henry then


It is very possible to be born with the gift of music. You see the evidence of this every time you witness a child prodigy. I don’t know if there is a prerequisite that determines who has a this innate gift or not. For instance, do your parents need to be musically gifted or does the gift have to run in your bloodline? Many people discover the gift at an early age and they cultivate that gift in school. Being born with the gift of music is a bit of a broad question to answer. The flip side of everything that I said would be those people who have been born into musical families and are surrounded by musical people, but are not musically inclined. There is no right or wrong answer. It’s also possible for people who aren’t born with music to spend time and develop the gift of music. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter how you acquire a gift, as long as you have the gift.
