The Unexpected Song

DAY 17 “The Unexpected Song”


“Welcome again. We are in Day 17 of Advent,
and this is Tiny Advent Parables with Fr. Dominic —
where simple moments reveal God’s joyful surprises.”


“Today’s story begins on a quiet train…
with a song no one expected.”


“A group of tired passengers sat in a train compartment,
faces heavy, hearts drained by the long day.
One young mother sat holding her little daughter,
who suddenly began humming softly —
a bright, innocent tune.
At first, the passengers ignored it.
But slowly, smiles began to appear.
The tune grew into a gentle song,
and soon the whole compartment fell quiet
just to listen.
When she finished,
an elderly man wiped a small tear and said,
‘Thank you, little one…
I had forgotten what joy sounds like.’
In that moment,
a tired train turned into a place of unexpected grace.”


“Sometimes joy doesn’t shout —
it hums.
It enters quietly,
like a melody you didn’t know you needed.
Advent reminds us that joy is not the absence of struggle —
it’s the presence of God
in the middle of it.
Joy finds us
in ordinary moments,
in sudden kindness,
in soft music,
in gentle surprises
that remind us
we are not alone.
Joy is God whispering,
‘I’m here. Keep going.’
Let your heart listen.
Joy might be closer than you think.”


“So today, ask yourself:
‘Where did God hide a small joy for me today?’
Let your spirit notice the melody.
And whisper:
‘Lord, awaken joy in me again.’
This is Tiny Advent Parables with Fr. Dominic.”
