Shout for Joy

I was sitting at the piano one day somewhat musing and I looked out the large bay window that frames a portion of the San Juan Islands. The sun was sinking in the west engulfed in the dramatic colors of a very special sunset. What an incredibly beautiful scene! I said to myself, “Lord, I see your love of beauty in the sunset.” I took a piece of paper and wrote it down and then my imagination went to the other end of the spectrum, and I wrote, “I feel your awesome power in every storm.” By the time the sun was totally out of view I had finished my poem. It chronicles the history of the human race from walking with God in the garden, through the tragic fall, the incarnation, and the monumental return of the prodigal to Eden. July fourth celebrates freedom; to that great gift let’s add the ultimate release from sin into the joy of ultimate freedom in and through Jesus Christ.
