What makes your soul sing? If you can only answer, "My soul sings when blessings
come,” then that’s the wrong answer. Unless, you understand that blessings can
"come through raindrops and healing through tears." (Blessings, Laura Story)
How
do I know? I’ve experienced it---blessings can come through those hard places,
the deepest pain and our greatest struggles. Sometimes that’s just hard to see
when we’ve just begun the walk through that battle. In fact sometimes we aren’t
even upright at first, just on our face, struggling to breathe and inch
forward. But God……in his mercy is there. Sometimes it’s the prayer of a friend
or a message from His word or maybe even song lyrics.
Lyrics---I just wish you could hear
the melodious singing from our Ukraine leadership meetings-- Lyrics that can help your soul to sing, even in your hard
place……
♪♪ I
could sing of Your love forever…
Over the
mountains and the sea
Your river
runs with love for me
and I will
open up my heart
and let the
healer set me free. (I could sing of
Your love forever, Mercy Me)
♪♪And this is my
prayer in the fire
In weakness or
trial or pain
There is a faith
proved
Of more worth
than gold
So refine me
Lord through the flames…. I will bring praise…. I will bring praise
…..All of my
life
In every
season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason
to worship (The Desert Song, Hillsong)
♪♪The sun comes
up, it's a new day dawning
It's time to
sing Your song again
Whatever may
pass, and whatever lies before me
Let me be
singing when the evening comes (10,000 Reasons, Matt Redman)
….as
I listened and prayed for several of you this morning. Know I love you and so
does God. He longs for your soul to sing once again.
♪Sing like never before
O my soul ♪(Ibid)
Are you
singing?
