The Great Depression in 1930s hit a businessman named J.C Penney particularly hard, endangering his very health. Anxious and desperate because of his huge financial loses, Penney sank so low he felt he had nothing to left to live for.
In the hospital one night, he grew so demoralized that he expected to die before morning! Then he heard singing come from the hospital chapel:
"be not dismayed whate'er betide, God will take care of you. Beneath his wings of love abide, God will take care of you".
Entering the chapel, he listened to the song, the scripture reading, and the prayer. He wrote: "Suddenly-something happened. I can't explain it. I can only call it a miracle. I felt as if I'd been instantly lifted out of the darkness of a dungeon into warm, brilliant sunlight".
From that day on, J.C. Penney was never again plagued with worry. When he died at ninety-five, he left behind 1,660 department stores bearing his name.
When nothing else works, the praises of God set to music can lift you out of a spiritual funk. That is why the Bible says:
"it is Good to sing praises to our God."
May we all be encouraged today!
Yours truly,
