Sing to the Lord
READ: Psalm 147
Ever since I can remember, I would wake up early Sunday morning and my whole family would hop in the car and go to church. To me that was just what we did, no questions about it. I remember sitting next to my dad and always being a little embarrassed because he would sing so loud. Not until I got into 7th or 8th grade, did I realize what a blessing it was to have my dad sit there and sing praise to God. He was showing me how not to be afraid to let my faith show.
Psalm 147:7 says, “Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving; make music to our God on the harp.” This verse clearly states how we are to praise our Lord every day of our life. We are to let our light shine. There are so many situations each day where we have the chance to do this. It could be as simple as saying, “God Bless.”
We are to live our life showing our faith to everyone, not being afraid to let others know our life style. God will bless us all greatly. We just have to praise our Lord and let our light shine.
THINGS TO THINK ABOUT: How can we let our light shine? How does God help us to show our faith? What can we say to others to help them let their light shine?
PRAYER SUGGESTIONS: Ask God to help us let our light shine. Ask God to give us the patience to let our faith grow. Ask God to help us show others the blessings God has given us.
