In this video, a mom’s angelic voice calms down her crying baby. At first, a sweet young toddler is seen in a baby carrier in this clip. His face says it all. He is not happy one bit and his scrunched-up facials and cries cause anyone to calm him down.
As the boy is crying, all of a sudden the beautiful singing voice of his mother comes on from behind the camera. She sings a bit of the song, “For Good” from the hit musical Wicked.
Her skills are nothing short of Broadway and the little boy goes immediately from sadness to a big smile on his face. He giggles and grins as she sings. It is adorable. This short clip gives us a glimpse of how quickly our own emotions can change.
We, like this young toddler, can be thrown with difficulties and challenges in life and then hear a song that we love or experience a moment of happiness that completely changes our day.
The truth is that the Bible tells us that we are sung over by our Heavenly Father. This is even more wonderful than the mother in this video clip singing over her son. If we could stop and receive the joy that our God wants to share with us, we too can be given the strength to change our attitudes like the young toddler in this clip.
“The LORD your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.
