Things your children ask to make you go, HUH?
"Mom, are we out of silly-string?"
Just so my friends know, I don't usually keep a supply of this.
There's a song out by Keith Urban titled, "When God Made Woman." I've been listening to it and loving it lately . . . it makes me so happy! The chorus is:
When God made woman
He must have been proud
Yeah He must have been cryin' or laughin' out loud
Must have felt like the first time getting kissed by the sun
When God made woman
The melody and music are so happy and joyful! It makes me think of God's utter delight with His creation. One of my favorite scripture verses is Zephaniah 3:17:
"The Lord your God is in your midst,
A victorious warrior.
He will exult over you with joy,
He will be quiet in His love,
He will rejoice over you with shouts of joy."
God is so tickled with us, He just shouts out loud for the sheer joy of having us around! Another version reads, "He will rejoice over you with singing." We make Him burst into song!
Oh, how I love Him. How I love being His child!

Joyful exultation for BT:
Handel's Messiah at FULL blast
Sunny, breezy day
Windy, cloudy day

ESV says not only singing, but LOUD singing. :]
The LORD your God is in your midst,
a mighty one who will save;
he will rejoice over you with gladness;
he will quiet you by his love;
he will exult over you with loud singing.
Can you even fathom what it would be like to hear the singing voice of God? It makes my insides get all jumpy!
My friend G in CA gave me permission to post her comments. She gets stuff by email so she doesn't come to the posting spot.

I am just rejoicing all over the place, y'all
