Psalm 5:11 “But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy.”
Talk about a habit that drives your teenagers crazy, I have this fetish of always having a song about everything. Drives them bonkers. I can’t help but start to sing when I’m happy, and music has always been my solace when life is not kind. Try purchasing some praise music to play in your car or on the stereo at home instead of turning the television on. What a defuser to stress, what a balm for the weary, what a joy for the happy in spirit. I guarantee it will be the best investment in spiritual growth that you will make this year. Don’t just listen to it, let it guide your praise as you learn the secret of continually offering praise to God.
