Singing in the Morning

I will sing of Your strength, in the morning I will sing of Your love, for You are my Fortress, my Refuge in times of trouble. O My Strength, I will sing praise to You; You, O God are my Fortress,My Loving God! Ps. 59:16&17 NIV

The first thing you need to know about me is, I don't do mornings. To be expected to sing in the morning is almost more than I can comprehend.

Drink coffee? Yes! Read quietly? Yes! Sit motionless till my blood starts pumping? Yes!
Sing? Um, no I don't think so. You must have me confused with someone else...

Yet, as I read these words this morning something inside of me started to move. My Fortress, my refuge in times of trouble, O my Strength. If I wasn't careful I could have actually broken out into a little dance right there in my jammies!

How many times has He, the creator of the Universe, been a Shield for me? How many times has He, my Father, given me His strentgh to get through a trial? How many times has He, the King of Kings, been my Refuge, my Strong Tower my ever present help in times of trouble?

The track record my Heavenly Father has concerning me is too much for me to think about with out doing a jig!

He is ALWAYS there, I have never fallen that He hasn't picked me up, brushed me off and started me off again on my journey.

Isn't it amazing we have only to run to Him to have shelter under His wings? With everything He is He provides a safe Refuge for us. His love is overwhelming. All we have to do is run to Him.

What's not to sing about? My praise should not only be in the morning, but for all He's done for me, it should be a non stop song fest. If I started now and sang 24/7 for the rest of my life I could never touch on all the things He's done for me.

OK, if you're reading this, I love ya, but I've got to go.....I have a song of praise to sing to my Father and it can't wait!!

Be Blessed
