Reconciled

This video was just too cute, so I thought it would be fun to share the joy with you! This is my cousin's daughter, and she loves to sing! In this clip, you can hear her enthusiastic version of "Joy to the World" and "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing." Although she may forget some of the words and mumble some of the phrases, I admire her joyful enthusiasm! I always smile when she comes to the part in "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" that states, "God and sinners reconciled." Until that line, many of the words are blurred together in her cute toddler voice. But when she comes to that particular phrase, she proudly and clearly proclaims the one word- reconciled! (Watch it again if you didn't catch it the first time!)

Reconciliation. When all else in the world is uncertain, that is one word that stands out. When our surroundings or circumstances seem mumbled, confusing, or misunderstandable, we can sing out one word with certainty and clarity - reconciled! There is a simple, but profound lesson that we can learn from my little cousin and her beautiful singing. Life may be saturated with uncertainty, but we hold fast to one thing with absolute certainty: God and sinners are reconciled by the almighty and living God through the saving blood of our Savior, Jesus Christ! So let us shout it out with enthusiasm and energy that Christ is our Savior. Through Him we are reconciled to God and brought back into a loving relationship with Him. That is something to sing about!
