Sing of the Lord's great love!

I will sing of the Lord’s great love forever! Psalm 39:1

“Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, “ Ephesians 5:19

This little songbird will sing out her praises all day to the Lord without reservation and with such joy and sweetness. I will sing out loudly only in the safety of my car or when our congregation is lifting their collectively voices in praise. I am so thankful that the song that is most sweet to the Lord is not necessarily that which sounds the best to our ears, but that which comes from our heart as we praise and worship Him in spirit and in truth! May He give us hearts that rejoice through the trials and troubles of this life as we look to the One who can, will and (if you are trusting in Him) HAS delivered us from the guilt of your sins and, therefore, from death and hell. Who is that One? The Lord Jesus Christ. He is the one who said, "No man has greater love than this, that he lay down his life for his brother, " and then went on to do just that; and not just for one, but for all who will repent and believe!
