This morning I left the house earlier than normal to pick up my little granddaughter and take her to school. It was quite cold and there was snow on the ground, but, amazingly -- the birds were singing so beautifully!! I thought of these words in The Song of Solomon:
"The winter is past -- the time of the singing of birds is come." Even though the calendar says that Spring is about three weeks away, the birds are so happy as they anticipate and look forward to its coming that they can't hold back their singing any longer!
Isn't that just the way it is when we belong to Jesus? Today is Friday, and I feel like the little birds. My heart is already singing as I anticipate and look forward to the Lord's Day that is coming soon.
May God bless you today as you love and serve Him! And -- don't forget-----
"There's a blessing in prayer, in believing prayer,
When our Saviour's name to the Throne we bear.
Then a Father's love will receive us there;
There is always a blessing, a blessing in prayer."
