Chapel sillhouette figures “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord,” (Colossians 3:16, Holy Bible, New Living Translation).

A soft lullaby calms a restless child. A loud chant excites a crowd. A hymn or spiritual song stirs individual emotions that can’t be duplicated by words alone. Apostle Paul addressed his letter to the church at Colosse based on reports from Christian workers there, not experience or eye-witness accounts. Perhaps that’s why he uses admonish, a mild rebuke or warning, coupled with grace when he instructs the church to sing.

Prayer: Lord, give me a song in my heart, softened by grace. Amen.

Benefits

Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: (Psalm 103:2, Holy Bible, King James Version).

If the wages proposed in the same range for two or more employment sources, the benefit package could determine the applicant’s decision. Serving the Lord has more benefits than ever imagined. Health problems? Healing is available. Emotional distress? Peace is offered by the Master peace giver. Tired, hungry or thirsty? Jesus is the great supplier. He offers boundless benefits because we are more than servants. We are His children.

Prayer: Thank You Lord for every day provisions and a generous benefit package. Amen.
