  From:  “God's Minute: A Book of 365 Daily Prayers Sixty Seconds Long for Home Worship” Psalm 30:12 says: “That my heart may sing your praises and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks to you forever.” Let’s converse with it—not just explain it. From Silence to Song This verse comes after restoration . Earlier in Psalm 30, there is distress, illness, even the nearness of the grave. Verse 12 is not naïve praise—it is earned gratitude . The silence here is not merely quiet; it represents despair, suppression, or being cut off from expression. Deliverance restores voice . In practical terms, this is the moment when experience turns into wisdom. Pain that remains unspoken hardens. Pain that is transformed into praise becomes instruction—for yourself and others. The Inner Shift Notice the phrasing: “that my heart may sing.” This is not about performance or public display. It’s about alignment . When the heart sings, action follows naturally. Thanksgiving becomes sustai...

Hexagram 28 from the I Ching — known as Great Exceeding — speaks directly to this: the image of a beam under too much pressure. Not all collapse is sudden — some is behavioral, cultural, or structural. Key OB Insight: When norms, values, or structures are strained beyond their limit, organizations must shift behaviorally — not just procedurally. This is a moment of reckoning and realignment. 📌 Behavioral Signals of Hexagram 28 in Organizations: Employees withdrawing or overcompensating under unclear expectations Leadership bearing excessive responsibility without delegation Culture cracking under legacy systems or outdated narratives Silos forming due to lack of adaptive communication 🔁 Actionable OB Principle : Excessive press...
