The prophetess Miriam, Moses' sister, took the tambourine and danced with everyone when God parted the waters of the Red Sea and saved the Israelites. For they were saved from a scene of death. The Apostle Peter wrote this in his letter. I Pet. 1:8, "whom having not seen you love. Though now you do not see Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory," When the heart is filled with love and faith, the heart leaps for joy.
