In the last posting, Joy in the Tribulation: Always, I referred to a song titled simply, “joy” by King & Country – I hope you enjoyed listening to it! I commented on how the singer is seeking joy; making a choice between status quo and experiencing joy in life. In the end he chooses joy.

Today’s posting starts with taking a trip in the “way-back-machine” to August 27, 2017, when I posted the song “Bring the Rain” by MercyMe (Rain). I think it’s a perfect second step on what will be a three stop journey. We’re chasing an understanding, through the creativity of awesome song writers and amazingly talented performers, of what we have to go through to find the Joy In The Tribulation. Step two, “Bring the Rain,” explains that in our darkest times we can find ways to praise God.

To summarize our journey thus far we see that:

Step 1> is to choose joy; a conscious choice made with full faith.

Step 2> is to understand that difficult times often come down like rain and we should, and can, seek ways to find the joy therein.

Step 3> You’ll have to wait till next posting for the conclusion of our journey into “joy.”

Enjoy MercyMe’s “Bring the Rain.” For those of you that are experiencing a downpour, or have in your past, I hope this song will inspire in you a new perspective of what you can find in all those drops of darkness.
