Don't let yourself forget that God's grace rewards not only those who never slip, but also those who bend and fall. So sing! The song of rejoicing softens hard hearts. It makes tears of godly sorrow flow from them. Singing summons the Holy Spirit. Happy praises offered in simplicity and love lead the faithful to complete harmony, without discord. Don't stop singing. - St. Hildegard von Bingen
Proverbs says that the Valiant Woman "shall laugh in the latter day" but I'm sure she sings, too. Check back tomorrow for more about St. Hildegard.
What a neat quote! Thank you!
