“Nursing infants gurgle choruses about You; toddlers shout the songs that drown out the enemy talk, and silence atheist babble” (Psalm 8:2 THE Message version).
Greetings,
One of my favorite activities is pushing my little grandbaby on her porch swing. Every morning I take her outside, put on her favorite music, strap into her pink swing, and push away. She loves it, and I love watching her love it. She cracks herself up, and it’s really the only time she opens her mouth where I can see her precious teeth without fear of being viciously bitten.
This morning, however, I actually paid attention to the lyrics of the songs booming out of my portable speaker. It’s a collection of Christian toddler tunes, and as I listened to lyrics like, “Jesus loves me,” “Bless the Lord – o my soul,” “Hosanna, Jesus saved me," and “I have the joy of the Lord,” I found myself grateful for:
Living in a nation where this type of wholesome, uplifting music is readily available for babies and everyone.
Sweet children singing their hearts out about Jesus.
The truths they are singing about are for babies, and for those of us who are not so young anymore.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, we bless You and thank You that You love us. We bless You today for all the blessings You constantly shower on us. We are inundated with wisdom, peace, joy, faith, hope, health, and love. We are also saved from having to live this life on our own and saved for all eternity. And thank You that when we praise You, all enemy talk is drowned out! In Jesus’ name,
