Love Song

God has a precious way to calm our troubled hearts. His ways are not our ways. He sings a song of love for us in times of despair. His song of love makes our heavy load very light. His lullaby can truly calm our hearts. His secret melody is love.

When times of hopelessness, despair come to us. What do we do? Should we sing songs to God to ease the pain? What if our hearts have no strength to sing? What if our hearts have a raging storm that does not let our voice be heard?
 
Zephaniah 3: 16-17  Says:   Jerusalem will be told:  "Don't be afraid. Dear Zion,
don't despair. Your God is present among you,  a strong Warrior there to save you. Happy to have you back, he'll calm you with his love and delight you with his songs.


Zephaniah is telling us that when life has been hard on us. And when we feel that every reason to sing has died, we can still ask our heavenly father to sing a song for us. When He Sings his song of love over us,  His presence is poured into our hearts until it overflows. His song endures until our heartbeat becomes one with His.  His song will allow us to sing again in the middle of our storms.
 
In the midst of our storms and difficulties, God can sing to us the song that we've been longing to hear. His song tells us: "It is over!" "You'll see evil no more." His song tells us that He 'll take the burdens we've been carrying for too long.

It is amazing to hear the voice of our savior singing to us: "Smile! Rejoice and dance! Dance with the song I sing to you today. Evil days are gone. Fear no more! I am mighty to save you! Dance through life and listen to my song. My son/daughter you are mine!"

 God does not promises us to sing His song for us in the future. His song is available for us here and now! His song was written and crucified since the foundation of the world. His song is named: "Jesus!" Jesus has come to take away all our punishment and He has made our enemies turn back.

Jesus is the song of deliverance God sang over us. He sang it to us when Jesus hanged on the cross and shed his blood on Calvary. His song destroys fear and anxiety so we can live in peace. It removes the burdens and dissipates the accumulated sorrows. It also brings honor to our name and removes the shame of our past. His song will make everything inside of us turn into a quiet river of living water.

If you feel like your strength to worship God is gone, maybe you feel like there is no reason to praise God. Don't worry, just stop and in the quiet listen to His love song for you.

Listen carefully,  you can hear his song in everything that surrounds you. If you listen carefully you'll realize that there are many things to be grateful for. Maybe you have a wonderful husband who is cheering you up. Or maybe your friends invite you over for supper and you laugh  a lot! Maybe someone text you: "I'm praying for you." Maybe you see a child smile, or a nice sunset! Or maybe you are reading this post. That means His song is there.

His song is where you are. Listen to it. Let it soothe your heart and calm your raging storm. 


I have decided to listen to the love song my father sings to me. I will cast all my burdens at the precious cross of my savior. Where death became life. Where my curse became my blessing. Where my savior kissed me with a song of love. Where my father exclaimed: "This is my daughter. I count her sins against her no more. I take delight in her."

Would you leave your burdens right there, at Calvary where He said: "I'll quiet his/her heart with my love" ?


Happy Valentine's day!

Listen to a Beautiful Song the Father Sings to you!
