A Song of Joy

In this episode, Curtis and Sally reflect on Psalm 126, a song that captures the surreal joy of restoration after a long season of sorrow and waiting. Described as a dream fulfilled, this psalm celebrates God's faithfulness in bringing His people home, prompting laughter, singing, and praise—not only from His people but also from the watching world.

Curtis shares how moments of joy, like graduations or major life milestones, can feel almost unreal after long anticipation—reminding us of God's perfect timing. Sally highlights the beauty of how God's acts of restoration become testimonies of His goodness to the nations.

The hosts draw powerful connections between the psalm’s imagery of planting in tears and harvesting with joy, and Jesus' words in John 4 about the spiritual harvest. Whether we’re sowing seeds or gathering fruit, the work is God's—and both the process and the result can be filled with joy.
