Microphones are amazing; they amplify, they enhance, they enrich. Yet without the sound, the voice; they are simply waiting. Waiting for the person, the instrument, the sound, the vibrations to enter in and make the magic. Hopefully these mics won’t have to wait too long. 🙂
Sing a new and happy song on your Wednesday; with or without your mic, God will love it! 🙂 Slainte, Lisa
“Shout for joy, O heavens; rejoice, O earth; burst into song, O mountains! For the Lord comforts his people and will have compassion.” ~Isaiah 49:13
What is singing in your corner of the world this morning? Maybe the tree that is using red, orange, and yellow as his notes of song. Maybe the green grass under your feet is shouting, “Glorious day!” Maybe the sky and the clouds are playing with blues and whites and grays, creating a beautiful artwork of this very moment. Go ahead and add to their beauty with a song or big shout of your own! Slainte, Lisa
Some mornings, or afternoons, or evenings, I just don’t want to sing. For a person who loves to sing, this is always weird and disconcerting. But when I feel like that, that is the very time that I need to sing the most. It lifts me out of the pity-party mode and into the God-party. 🙂
“I will sing to the Lord, because He has dealt bountifully with me.” ~Psalm 13:6
God is so good. Blessings on your day, Lisa
I used to want to be famous. Someone who would sing up on a big stage, record albums every other year and then go out on tour. I thought this was the epitome of happiness and fulfillment in life. I went after this goal for many years, but one day, I realized that I was already happy. I had a husband who loved me, a child who was a delight, a home. I had a God who never forgets me or overlooks what I say. To God, I am infinitely important. Every so often the “man, I wish I had been a big famous singer”thought will bite again, but it passes, because I am so blessed. Singing at my piano in my family room, with the immense and awesome audience of God, is the best.

Be encouraged….to God you are a superstar. 🙂 Lisa
“If you make a mistake in a song, don’t forget every breath is a new beginning and a new chance.” – Julia Gregson, Jasmine Nights
How true and beautiful. A new day, a new beginning, a new chance. A brand new morning, fresh and clean. You can sing your song again and people will hear your new rendition. Go ahead, take a deep breath, and let those notes come out. I pray beauty and grace and love in every phrase, for me and for you. Slainte, Lisa
“He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God.” – Psalm 40:3a
