Then Sings My Soul Saturday - Let's Sing a Happy Song





This past week I've been thinking a lot about my mom again. I miss her. So badly! Sometimes I wish I can just pray, and I will pray as hard as I could, for just one more moment with her. One more chat, one more hug.

But no, it just can't be. She's gone. The only thing I can do is ask God to comfort my sad heart. And He does. He fills my heart with songs that brushes away the sadness that envelops my soul at such times. One song my little boy and I like singing is this song, "Let's Sing a Happy Song!" Makes me smile in spite of my longing for my mother.

Many hugs to you, today, as you remember your mom. That is a great song - I'll have to learn that one to sing with my kids. :)

I know the pain of an empty heart when you are missing a loved one...I miss my daddy terribly. May you feel the many hugs that I am sending your way right now...may the Holy Spirit deliver them to you and you feel His arms around you. Cute song!

Angela, your niece showed courage as she was able to stand by her mother's burial sight. That I couldn't even do. Didn't want the burial as my last memory of her.

*hugs*--can never get enough of them :D Thanks, I appreciate you!

Jennifer, I'm sorry to know you've lost your dad. *hugging* you back! Never really knew this kind of pain and emptiness til I lost my mom. May God continue to comfort us!

Mocha with Linda, hi there! That is my experience too! :D I'm a softie for kids, and they not only make me smile with their songs, but get me teary-eyed happy-inside too!
