Shh. Be quiet for a sec. Do you hear that? Yeah, there it is again. It’s getting louder. And it’s definitely Monday morning music. Wow. How cool is that?! Here it is, the second Monday of September 2024, and there’s music in the air. Literally and figuratively.
Just in case you haven’t had your favorite wake-up beverage, yet, and your ears aren’t tuned in to the right sound waves, I’ll share a couple of mine with you.
My Monday Morning Music
Here’s my song
For the day.
It’s my Monday morning music, and I pray
That it’s fun,
And you’re blessed.
If you want to sing along, well, be my guest.
Take these words.
Make a tune.
Hum it now, and sing it all this afternoon.
Whistle once.
Add a smile.
Find a way that you can give it your own style.
Start the day.
With a song,
And your heart will be much fuller all day long.
Keep the joy
Inside you.
Then my Monday morning music is yours, too. © 2014
That was my idea of how encouraged you and I should be that we’re alive. So encouraged that you almost can’t keep from humming or whistling or singing. And just in case there’s no actual melody that springs into your brain in the first hour of the day, I put words to the wordless song that waits for you right out your front door.
Music in the Morning
Listen to the music in the morning.
Open up your windows, let it in.
No violins or brass…
Just flowers, trees, and grass
To greet you as enchanting notes begin.
Listen to the music in the morning
Carried on the wings of bustling birds.
Squirrels that scamper by
And airplanes in the sky
Add to this composition with no words.
Listen to the music in the morning.
Let not your hearts be troubled any way.
Just listen and applaud
The awesome love of God
In every morning and through every day. © 2013
OK, I think you’re well-equipped now.
So, off you go. Get your salt and light ready for that mean ol’ world out there. You’re starting off on the right foot. And don’t be surprised if the Monday morning music carries you through the day and all through your week. Because it’s a gift from God.
And His gifts are so unique that even the stars sing.
