Aug. 22, 2008 - Oh To Sing The Night Away!

A while back, my sister and I went to a really neat birthday part sleepover.  It was neat because everyone there were Christians, and we had a rollicking good time riding 4-wheelers, building a large hay fort, and watching the birthday cake be lit by a blow torch.  Slightly unusual, but extremely enjoyable!

However, I think that the best thing of all was that night, as we lay in the hay fort in our sleeping bags.  A group of at least eleven girls singing their hearts out, is one of the neatest things that you can be a part of.  We excitedly shared our favorite songs with one another.  We sang until late into the night, simply enjoying and appreciating the words of each and every song. 

That is a night that I hope I never forget, just because of that simple enjoyment.  There was no TV, no movie, no entertainment whatsoever other than our voices.  I often think of it still, and want to do it again.  To be with those girls, to share the pleasure that most girls have of singing, with them, and to fellowship with them was very special.

. . . a sweet sounding evening. Sometimes it is just thoroughly enjoyable to get away from all the technology and just enjoy God-given entertainment.

Blessings!

Aww how precious. That is what true fellowship and "hanging out" is supposed to mean. ;)
