This is the song that came to mind when I was prompted to sing to Jesus this morning over my Reese's Puffs. In the quietness of my house, with everyone else still in bed, I couldn't quite get myself to sing aloud. In my head and in my heart (where it sounds much better, anyway...just like the recording, actually), I sang as much of these words as I could think of.
The thought that always brings me overwhelming joy is knowing that someday I will have eternity to sing to Jesus. In his presence, with a voice I will no longer be self-conscious about, I will sing.
"When we've been there 10,000 years bright, shining as the sun. We'll have no less days to sing our praise than when we'd first begun." What a powerful thought.
I know he doesn't care about what I sound like and that he wants me to sing with abandon right now. I'm getting there.
For now, I am ending my day knowing he hears the song on my heart. I am listening to this song as prompted in the journal...as though he is singing it over me. "...a sweet song of his commitment, protection, forgiveness, and favor."
It's funny; I had no idea that the journal would end with those words when I thought of this song this morning. I guess that goes to show...I didn't think of this song. He planted it there. Now, he is sending it to you.
May the love of God cover you tonight, tomorrow, and throughout this week.
