Passion for Praise: 'What Joy!'

Friday, February 12, 2016

When the Lord brought back his exiles to Jerusalem, it was like a dream! We were filled with laughter, and we sang for joy. And the other nations said, "What amazing things the Lord has done for them." Yes, the Lord has done amazing things for us! What joy!
— Psalm 126:1-3
