A Joyful Noise?

We went to a friend's house today, to swim. I'm still the new girl in town, so I still don't know where everyone lives. I ended up following my friend out to her house, since she was in town this morning and lives about seven miles out. My kids decided to ride with her...

Anyway I said all of that to say, " I WAS IN THE CAR BY MYSELF FOR ALMOST TEN MINUTES WITH NO KIDS OR TRAFFIC!" How often does that happen? I had the music blaring, singing at the top of my voice, without a care in the world! Wonderful! We are called to make a "joyful" noise, and I was "trying" my best. Of course there was no one to hear, except the Lord, so I'm going to pretend it was "beautiful" too.

My new favorite chorus is "Mighty to Save." I think the writers wrote it just for me! Don't you love it when God works like that?

Everyone needs compassion

A love that is never failing

Let mercy fall on me

Everyone needs forgiveness

The kindness of the Savior

The hope of the nations.

Savior, he can move the mountains

My God is mighty to save

He is mighty save

Forever,author of salvation

He rose and conquered the grave

Jesus conquered the grave.

So take me as you find me

All my fears and my failures

Fill my life again

I give my life to follow

Everything I believe in

Now I surrender

Shine your light and let the whole world see

We are singing for the glory of the risen king...

Jesus.

I hope you can find some time in your busy schedule to "make a joyful" noise too. It is incredible what ten minutes can make! Read Zephaniah 3:17 and you might just hear the Lord singing with you...
