singing your own song

Spiritual resource to share: your voice

Last week, I visited a church during their Wednesday service.  In the audience, there were members of a four generation family with the little three year old representing the fourth generation. 

Throughout the service she played and stayed close to her mother.  But when it came time to sing, she SANG!  I think she sang "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" loudly and happily while the rest of us sang a song from the hymnal.  But she was singing and, most importantly, she was singing with us.  And not only was that important, but it made us all laugh as we sang along.

Each of us has a song to sing, a reason for living, and a unique purpose that each of us individually can fill.  Singing out who we are, what we love, singing out our joy - that kind of harmony blends with others all the time.  We need not be afraid or timid about who we are.  God made us, in His/Her own likeness, and God's work is never undone, is always good, and we are forever a part of God's symphony of Love.
