Singing a Psalm today

The Psalms are songs coming from the heart of those who have written them down. Each Psalm Is a very human heart cry and may not be doctrinally correct but are very real and very human.

Each Psalm Is a reminder God wants And desires To listen to the very real Cries and even screams of our hearts. We may want to hide the anger and fury in our hearts but God knows all we are thinking and who we are. Each song reminds us God desires and is willing to listen to our very thoughts and desires.

Through the psalms may you learn to humbly, expectantly, desperately and even angrily cry out to God and sing your own psalm to God!

When my children were young they loved to watch Sesame street and a song written by Joe Raposo still is a blessing to me.

Sing, sing a song

Make it simple to last

your whole life long.

Don’t worry if it’s not good enough

for anyone else to hear

just sing, sing your song.

May you find your own song and lift it up to God, the only audience that matters!

Authors note

“Come now, and let us reason together,”

““Come now, and let us reason together,” Says the LORD, “Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool.” (Isaiah 1:18 NKJV)

Prayer is how we are able to “reason” with God no matter who we are or how we live. Reasoning with God allows us to converse with God by sharing our feelings and needs while also listening to God’s guidance and call.

To me it is amazing God even desires to listen to us but it is breathtaking God desires to reason and converse with us! This is a reminder Jesus died so we could once again have a relationship with our creator.

If you decide to sing your way through the Psalms take this opportunity to converse and reason with God who longs to communicate with you.
