I have the fatherly gift of interpretation!

Frankly, the writing is really pitiful, but you

can just make out the words:

It’s really pitiful by adult standards and

it wouldn’t mean anything to you, but it is

priceless to me. Someday it will join a

whole box full of other scribbled crayon

masterpieces back home, and every one of

them is special to me. What makes those

things precious to me? It isn’t that they are

so artistically done, and it isn’t the quality

of the “writing” that endears these draw-

“I Love god.

wouldn’t mean anything to you, and the

crayon drawings from your youngsters wouldn’t mean anything to me.

In the same way, the angels in Heaven who surround the orb of God’s throne with ceaseless praise and magnificent worship scratch their heads when suddenly the Deity leans forward and says, “Shhhh!” When they fall into an obedient hushed silence, He says, “I think I hear something….”

Everything Stops When God Almighty Hears Our Pitiful Refrain The six-winged seraphim were simply doing what they were created to do. They were crying out the praises of God in perfection and beating the atmosphere with their wings while covering their faces and their feet in humility. Then everything stops when God Almighty hears a pitiful refrain rising faintly from the chaos of the earth below: “He is holy, He is holy….” He quickly commands the angelic hosts, “Be quiet.” (I can almost hear the angels in the rear whisper to one another, “There He goes again.” )

Th e Day t h e M u s i c D i e d

Can you see the archangels Michael and Gabriel conversing, as they say, “I don’t know what gets into Him. Every time He hears them, He does this. That is such pitiful praise….”? We think we’re doing so well when we paint a masterpiece, when the quartet hits the final note in its best four-part harmony, when the choir brings the crowd to its feet.

Meanwhile, the angelic hosts who once heard lucifer the archangel rat-tle the heavens with thunderous worship and breathtaking celestial music are saying, “What is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him?” 10

Oblivious to every whispered question, God hushes the angels and says to Michael and Gabriel,

“Look, guys, I’m going to have to leave it with you.”

“Why? What is it, Lord?”

“Well, you see, I heard something that I just can’t ignore. I heard the song of the redeemed again…”

The Almighty Leaves His Throne to Join a Huddle of Prostrate Worshipers In the twinkling of an eye, the manifest presence of God is transported from Heaven to the middle of a huddle of prostrate worshipers gathered in a tear-stained circle singing, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord….”

God leaves His magnificent throne of Heaven and comes to earth to be enthroned on the pitiful praises of His people.
