This verse intrigues me:

“Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance” (Psalm 89:15).

What joyful sound? And have I heard it? And do I continue hearing it?

Do I know that sound enough to make it?

I want others to be a source of joyful sounds for me so that I may be blessed. And that’s fine.

I’m challenged, though, to be a source so that others may hear and know and be blessed.

Will the missionaries I’m visiting hear the joyful sound from me today? I hope so! They really need it.

So does my family. So do all the people I meet.

Let me better learn to be an utterer of the joyful sound. (I do well enough already at uttering no sounds or sour sounds.)

Since I am walking in the light of the Lord, how can I not take with me the joyful sound?!
