You Will Reap the Songs of Joy
Those who sow with tears will reap with songs of joy.—Psalm 126:5 (NIV)
David was dancing before the Lord with all his might, while he and all Israel were bringing up the ark of the Lord with shouts and the sound of trumpets.—2 Samuel 6:14-15 (NIV)
David’s dancing in the above Scripture is his way of expressing great emotion. He clearly felt God’s presence. Have there been times in your life when you felt overcome with emotion by His presence? Perhaps the birth of a child, the beauty of a sunrise, divine comfort during a gripping moment of grief. Reflect on your divine experiences.
Dear Lord, I am forever grateful to You for being so good to me!
Those who sow with tears will reap with songs of joy.—Psalm 126:5 (NIV)
The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land.—Song of Solomon 2:12 (KJV)
“My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message.”—John 17:20 (NIV)
