Daily D – Psalm 108:1
Psalm 108:1
“My heart is confident in you, O God; no wonder I can sing your praises with all my heart!” (NLT)
I’m ready, God, so ready,
ready from head to toe.
ready to sing,
ready to raise a God-song:
(The Message).

I attended a conference at a resort hotel a few months ago called Heartsong. This psalm of David is a heart song. He says so right off the top.
A coworker of mine forwarded a devotional last week from Worship Devotionals. These daily entries are worship songs from the team at The Worship Initiative (devo.theworshipinitiative.com). If you enjoy contemporary worship songs, these songs will bring daily encouragement to you.
I love singing. Music stirs my heart like nothing else.
What’s your heart song? What brings you encouragement, comfort, assurance, or hope?
What worship song makes you want to laugh out loud or hug somebody?
What songs do you hold in reserve for the hard times?
Yesterday’s sunrise was smooth and easy. The dew on the grass at the park, its green grandeur accented by sturdy oaks standing at attention, welcomed the sun’s illumination and refracted its rays in a loving glow. Ollie and I enjoyed the softness of the air and the smiles of our companions in worship.
An early task will prevent our walk this morning, but a pint-size passenger will lead into another round of hallelujahs.
What makes your heart sing this morning?
What could lead you into a holy shouting spree?
What song will you start, even if you don’t feel like it, because you know by the end of it, your feelings will have caught up to your initiative?
It’s a good and holy habit to keep a song or two or more ready to play and sing to say what is in your heart that is bigger than words alone can bear.

I will begin my days with heart songs and return to them often.

Our Father, thank you for heart songs. Thank you for reminders of your grace and mercy. Thank you for songs of praise, songs of lament, songs of joy, and songs expressing deep emotion stirred by the events of our days. Teach us to sing. Amen.
