About this listen

In response to numerous requests for a follow-up to The Night of Weeping, I have crafted The Morning of Joy, inspired by the words of David in the 30th Psalm. This new work aims to complement the previous one, which, while capturing the essence of tribulation, leaned heavily on the night-side of sorrow. Many felt it lacked balance, prompting me to shine a light on the dawn of hope and joy that awaits us. As we explore the beauty and breadth of mornings promise, we are encouraged to leave behind past troubles and look forward to the bright future ahead. By embracing these anticipations of glory, we can find deeper, richer sources of consolation in our lives. – Summary by PrefaceCopyright Religious Texts and Commentary Christianity Spirituality
