Sing to the LORD a new song;
sing to the LORD, all the earth.
Psalm 96:1
I love to sing. I mean LOVE to sing. I sing from the moment I wake to the moment I go to sleep at night. There is always a song playing around in my head.
Now, I am not the best singer. In fact, I am probably singing off key most (if not all) of the time. But that doesn't stop me. I will keep on singing until I can no longer. And even then, I will still carry a tune in my head.
DISCLAIMER: SOAPBOX MOMENT
I don't think that it matters much that I don't sing the greatest. If God only wanted us to participate in the things that we were good at, we wouldn't have much joy in our lives. I know that I am not meant to stand up on a stage and sing to a crowd. But I will stand right where I am and sing until my heart is content. If you don't like what you are hearing, then get some earplugs. If you are one of those singing purest who think only people who can sing well should sing, then we cannot be friends. Cause I'm not going to stop.
SOAPBOX MOMENT OVER
On a lighter note: I love to sing so much, I have passed this trait on to my little 6 year-old shih tzu. Yes. My dog sings. And it is by far one of the greatest blessings in my life. It brings me so much joy to hear her sing along to a song on the TV or Radio.
These videos never get old to me. I could watch them over and over again. If you would like to see more, check out our YouTube channel here.
So, if you hear me singing to myself, please don't scoff. Know that I am full of joy in those moments. And by all means, join in. I would love if life was like a musical, everyone breaking out into song whenever the mood carried them there.
