Sing to the Lord, and he’ll sing back.
Hi, I’m Joni Eareckson Tada. When I’m restless and my soul is downcast, I often surround myself with the calming strains of a favorite hymn. I sing to myself, and I sing to God. But did you know that God sings to me? Yeah, that’s right and he sings to you too. Zephaniah 3 says, “The Lord your God is with you, he’s mighty to save. He will take great delight in you; he’ll quiet you with his love; and he will rejoice over you with singing.” What’s fascinating is that verse is perhaps the only bright, happy thing in the entire book of Zephaniah. And it’s right at the end after a lot of doom and gloom. And it tells me that our heavenly father will never let suffering, pain, and disappointment have the last word. Rather, he sings the last note. And in your hardship, he sings a melody of hope and comfort and victory over you. So, sing to the Lord today. And just know that he is singing back.
