Sing!- Psalm 84:2
I love to sing and hum. Simply cos whenever I do that, I feel as if God is singing to me. Just imagine the picture of a loving parent singing to a baby lullabies. Singing praises and worshipping the Lord with my voice gives me a constant reminder that He is with me wherever I go, in a very tangible way. Interestingly, for the past few days, I have slowly lost my voice due to a cough and sorethroat. I can't really sing, cos it hurts whenever I try to make a tune. And I sound coarse and awful.
As I was waiting for the bus home from work today, I asked God to heal me quickly so that I can sing again! I told Him I really long to sing to Him again. However, I was quickly reminded, that hey, I don't need a voice to sing to Him. He just needs a heart of devotion. I was reminded of the times where I witnessed hearing impaired children praising and worshipping the Lord with sign language. Those were the days when I was a volunteer tutor with these kids. The room may be silent, but the praises and worship were as 'loud' as they could be! :)
In Psalm 84;2, David said, "my heart and flesh sings for joy to the living God..." (ESV). I think it kinda clicked today: I want to sing to the Lord with not just my voice, but to 'sing' WITH my heart, and my flesh, my whole nature, my body and my soul; to sing WITH all my desires and aspirations; to sing WITH all the longings of my heart! Cos even when man can't hear them, God can. And I just need to sing for the audience of One. amen.
