A Song In The Stillness
"For the Lord your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. He will take delight in you with gladness. With His love, He will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs." Zephaniah 3:17 (NLT)
Some of my favorite memories with my kiddos include music. Concerts, cd's, tons of rehearsals and listening to the radio. Music has always been like a second skin to our family. It's been part of our celebrations and helped us get through hard times. Music has connected us to our faith and it's poured out of us back to our Heavenly Father as an alabaster sacrifice.
In the evening with the lights dimmed and my babies tucked in my arms I would rock them and sing to them. The simple, quiet melody that broke through the stillness calmed my littles and calmed me as well.
Did you know that God sings over you? His heart is so full of joy over you that His joy spills out over you in song! Oh that we could hear that heavenly melody - when we're having trouble sleeping at night; when we're struggling with anxious thoughts that steal our peace; when angry feelings or dark depression threaten to drown us - may we get still, breathe deep, and listen... for our Abba Father singing His song of great joy over us.
