A New Song

Hello, and Happy New Year! Every day of life is a blessing from God, but it certainly feels extra special when that day brings an entirely new year. New years are exciting because they hold so much potential. Several Bible verses teach about newness in one way or another. We are told God makes all things new; God’s children are a new creation; when we obey the gospel, we experience new birth, and so on. But today, I want to consider a phrase that pops up in the Psalms.

Six times in the Psalter, we read something about a new song. For example, Psalm 96:1 says, “Oh sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth!” That’s a thought worth pondering today! If you could describe last year as a song, what would it? What will your song be this year? Maybe this year, it’s time for a new song—a song of love and devotion to the Lord of Lords!

In God We Trust

The phrase “In God we trust” is well-known. It’s sung in songs, printed on our money, and a sentiment that most Americans would likely claim to agree with. But do we really place our trust in God?
