What do we do when trouble comes? We sing. On Feburary 6 I found myself singing the very song mentioned on this thread, "I am blessed, I am Blessed, Everyday that I live I am blessed..."
As God's people sang, the enemy did something very curious. They turned on each other. The enemy slaughtered each other and when Judah arrived on the battlefield, all that was left for them to do was to pick up the spoils. And, while doing so, they blessed the Name of the Lord. That valley was from then thereafter called the Valley of Berachah. The Valley of Blessing. I'm living in the Valley of Blessing. I am blessed... and blessed be the Name of the Lord.
Great thread and great words, Sister Barb.
