If you sang this song as a child, I’m sure it brings a smile to your face. For those that didn’t have the privilege of learning this song, we will sing it at our next Neighborhood Cafe meeting!
I don’t know about you, but I love to sing! Especially songs that make me smile. I know when I’m feeling down in the dumps, if I start singing a praise song to the Lord, I am lifted out of the mire and muck. Ok, maybe not literally, but at least my spirit is singing and my attitude seems more joyful, even if my circumstances haven’t changed. I have noticed, though, that if I keep singing, even the circumstances seem to change.
I love this verse from Psalm 126:5-6:
“Those who sow in tears, will reap with songs of joy. He who goes out weeping, carrying seed to sow, will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with him.”
Remember, when your “Cup of Joy” is filled to overflowing, you will not only experience more joy in your own life, but bring joy to someone else you know who needs it, too!
Love,
