Affliction, comfort, and thankfulness for a catchy hook
Often when a pop song’s hook snags a corner of your mental playlist, it can be rather annoying.
But if that song is full of wisdom and truth from God’s own word, the encouragement can far outweigh the annoyance. And if the song and hook are simply well-crafted (rather than, say, cheap and bothersome) in the ears of its listeners, it might actually begin to teach and admonish them, and the word of Christ will dwell in them more richly than before the song got stuck on repeat in their brains (Colossians 3:16).
Since hearing the ultimately encouraging message from 2 Corinthians 1 last Sunday, such has been the case with me and the song “Every Day” by Sovereign Grace Music. Listen, and be thankful: Every Day
