Full of Song
The mountains and the Hills shall break forth into singing before you, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
~ Isaiah 55:12
"When sin is pardoned, our greatest sorrow ends, and our truest pleasure begins. Such is the joy that the Lord bestows upon His reconciled ones that it overflows and fills all nature with delight. The material world has latent music in it, and a renewed heart knows how to bring it out and make it vocal. Mountains and hills are the bass of the chorus, while the trees of the wood and all things that have life take up the air of the melodious song.
When God's Word is made to prosper among us, and souls are saved, then everything seems full of song. Then it seems as if rocks and hills, and woods and fields echoed our joy-notes and turned the world into an orchestra. Lord, on this happy May day, lead me out into Your tuneful world as rich in praise as a lark in full song."(By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
OUR FATHER WHO ART IN HEAVEN, HALLOWED BE THY NAME. THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN. GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD. FORGIVE US OF ALL OUR SINS, OUR DEBTS, AND OUR TRESPASSES AGAINST YOU AND MAN; AS WE FORGIVE THOSE WHO ARE INDEBTED TO US, AND THOSE WHO HAVE TRESPASSED AGAINST US. AND LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION, BUT DELIVER US FROM ALL EVIL:FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM, AND THE POWER, AND THE HONOR, AND THE GLORY, FOREVER. IT IS IN CHRIST JESUS' PRECIOUS NAME, AMEN.
