Oh, the weather forecast is naught but tales of woe, more cold and more snow. Good morning on this fine day in Christ! "And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives." Matthew 26:30. Is this the only time Jesus and the disciples sang? We may be divided on this, because some of us like to sing, others to listen to singing, and some may not like music at all. I like to think that Jesus and his crew sang often. Perhaps some of them played instruments after the evening meal. Music was likely just as important to them as it is to us now.
Praise music reminds us of our God, scripture, and doctrine. We listen and sing the good feelings of knowing Jesus and of His salvation. We can use music to drive away the bad feelings the world heaps upon us. The light in us shines brighter when we are praising God, and music can help us in this. We are encouraged to make a joyful noise to the Lord. Love may be easier sung than spoken. Sing a prayer, play a joyful tune on your favorite instrument, or simply enjoy the praise and worship music of the pros on the radio. Enjoy music to the glory of God the Father!
Have a wonderful day in Christ,Bucky
