Breakfast For Your Soul

You are my hiding place; You will preserve me from trouble; You will surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah.
[Psalm 32:7]

Good Morning Beloved,

  Happy Friday!  Music can be destructive… music can be constructive.  It is like a weapon.  Depending on how it is used, it can feed the depressed teen with thoughts of ending his life, or lift a persons spirits and give them hope.  When I listen to Israel Houghton’s “Just Wanna Say”, it instantly brings a smile to my face.  There are also songs that grate my nerves.  It is amazing the places within us that music can touch.  God knew this, and that is what makes this verse so beautiful.  He is the beautiful melody that encompasses our heart.  His Words bring life and peace.  I’ve always encouraged my daughter to pay attention to song lyrics.  She would use the typical, “I just like the beat” .  Whether or not we consciously ‘hear’ the words, they have a tendency to seep into us.  Ever started singing a song and wondered where it came from.  I mean, you haven’t heard the song in years and suddenly it “pops” into your mind.  Well, it had to be in there, in order to come out.  Sometimes, God will give you your very own song, or place a tune in your heart as a way to encourage and strengthen you.  Singing and dancing are woven throughout the tapestry of the Bible, because the joy of the Lord is our strength.  We are a people of purpose and destiny.  We have cause to celebrate.  We serve a mighty good God!

… that Beloved is Good News!

… so don’t be scared to get to movin’!

U Blessed

Have A Fabulous Day and a Wonderful Weekend
