Come with Singing {Day 25}

He’s six – almost seven and he sings songs he composes on the spot as he settles in for sleep. Songs of praise and worship to his Lord.

The house is quiet. The tick of the clock, my fingers tapping on the keyboard, and the hum of the fridge are the only sounds in the background.  But, then I hear the soft voice of my son singing.

In the quiet, in the rest we can look away from the activities that accumulate, the pressures that pile up, the needs that never end, the fears that make us falter.

Instead we, the redeemed, can raise our voice and sing to the Lord.

When we reflect on the beauty and majesty of our God, Creator, Redeemer our eyes are opened and our tongues will sing.

Say to those who have an anxious heart,

“Be strong; fear not!

Behold, your God

will come with vengeance,

with the recompense of God.

He will come and save you.”

And the ransomed of the LORD shall return

and come to Zion with singing;

everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; 

they shall obtain gladness and joy, 

and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

This is part of a series, linking up with Nester, for the month of October.

It is a series of posts of sharing what I am learning in Ruth Vaughn’s book, 'Write to Discover Yourself'.
