Psalm 126 - tears to joy

When the Lord returns His people to himself there is great hope that is expressed in happy dreams, laughter and songs of joy. Everyone will marvel and agree that it is the Lord that does great things for His people and that he will restore their tears and sadness with joy and plenty. Are you receiving discipline from God or still feel captive to a sin? Do you see His correction and draw back to Him as loving and hopeful or as unfair punishment? What area of your life needs returned to God? What great things has He done in your life? What areas in your life seem like a loss of time, energy or resources? Do you trust God to turn your tears into songs of joy? Have you asked the Redeemer to transform your situation to good?
