SINGING
II Samuel 1:17-18
Then David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son, and he told them to teach the children of Judah The Song Of The Bow; indeed it is written in the Book of Jashur."
David sang in good times and bad times. I can't imagine what life would be like without singing. It is such a powerful way to express sorrow and joy, lament and praise, national pride, love and love denied, and especially praise and love for God. No wonder the Bible has so many exhortations to "sing unto the Lord" (I Chronicles 16:23; Psalms 9:11, 30:4; 95:1; 96:1-2; 98:1, 5; 147:7; 149:1; Isaiah 12:5; 42:10; Jeremiah 20:13), and no wonder that the Book of Psalms is the largest in the Scriptures. So, let your heart "sing and make melody in your heart to the Lord" (Ephesians 5:19; 3:16).
TODAY'S PRINCIPLE: Singing is a powerful way to express the deep emotions of the heart.

Have a singing day. Love you.
