Break Out In Song
Have you ever been so happy that you burst out singing praise to God? Sometimes, I feel so good that I cannot help but to sing. I don’t always remember all the words, so I just make up my own. I am amazed at the joy God puts in my heart. Do you remember when God parted the Red Sea for the children of Israel to walk through on dry land and the Egyptians followed them into the Sea? After the waters swallowed up the pursuing Egyptian army, Miriam took a timbrel, a tambourine-like instrument, and led the women in a song and dance of victory. The words of Miriam’s song are among the oldest poetic lines of verse in the Bible: “Sing to the Lord, for He has triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider He has thrown into the sea.” (Exodus 15:21, ESV). Their hearts were so full of joy that they burst into song!
