"Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth. Sing to the Lord, praise his name; proclaim his salvation day after day." -- Psalm 96:1-2

When I speak to my children about their days, I'm always excited to hear what they have to share, as my heart warms whenever I hear of a new discovery or new learning in their life.  To them, I'm sure I stay the same... I'm the guy that always asks those same dull questions.  And maybe they feel their own life is static to some degree... but I know better.  They're growing by leaps and bounds.  While the changes may be more subtle now than when they were babies and toddlers, they're still changing, and it brings me joy to watch them grow.  If that's how we feel about our children, perhaps that's how God feels about us.  So sing a new song to the Lord and let him rejoice in all the ways you're growing. 

Readings:  Jeremiah 48:1-49:22; 2 Timothy 4:1-22; Psalm 95:1-96:13; Proverbs 26:9-12
