TODAY’S WORD…

My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready.

I will sing, I will sing Your praise.

– Psalm 57:7 (Grail Psalms)

REFLECTION…

How wonderful are those moments when I can look with the eyes of my heart at the Lord, my God, and tell Him, with all sincerity and joy, that my heart is ready! Loving sincerity makes the Christian sing. When I truly love God with all my heart, with my mind, and with all my strength, then my heart sings to Him in praise, making the sweetest of sounds!

We know that we truly love God, when those special moments of joy occur not only when ‘all’ seems to be fine with us and going our way, but also in times of distress and affliction. We may be suffering – yes – but our hearts are still full of that indescribable joy that only knowing and trusting in the Lord can bring!

PRAYER…

My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready.

I will sing, I will sing Your praise!
