I am a song



It says in the Bible that God spoke the world into being. It was through his words and his voice that he created everything. In the first book of the Chronicles of Narnia, The Magician’s Nephew by CS Lewis, the lion Aslan is creating Narnia by singing. The sun, the moon, the stars, little daffodils, bears and deer, antelopes, grass and trees - it all comes into being from the different melodies he is singing.

I heard somewhere that recent discoveries actually claim that the smallest existing particle is the sound or sound waves, not the electron or the neutron. When you take the smallest atom known to man and split it up one more time, there is one particle inside the smallest particle. This smallest particle is known as sound or sound waves. Sound waves are the smallest living substance unseen by the human eye that is at the core of every created thing.

All of a sudden this verse from Hebrews 1:3 makes more sense - literally:

The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining (upholding, maintaining) all things by his powerful word.

We are MADE of sound. The sound of His voice. He is constantly speaking us into existence. He has not stopped speaking. Not for a millisecond. We wouldn't be here if it wasn't for His words, not only at the creation, but ever since. He is speaking over us, singing over us, keeping us alive. And he has only good things to say about us. How amazing is that! He speaks only life, love, blessings.

He will rejoice over you with gladness,
He will quiet you with His love,
in His love He will be silent
and make no mention
[of past sins, or even recall them]

He will rejoice over you with singing.”




Zephaniah 3:17
