"Speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord;"
Sing to Him--lift the hearts of those who hear you, saturate your own heart with the melody of His presence, fill the throne room of Heaven with your exultation of His majesty.
Sing!
...

"Let everything that has breath, praise the Lord."
__________
Speak the truth--IN LOVE.
__________
Laugh.
__________
Forgive.
__________
Encourage.
__________
In case you forgot, He's still on the throne of the universe today--full of infinite wisdom and infinite love and infinite patience. He'll be there all day.
__________
Alone? Never.
__________
Suffering is the path we must walk to fully understand His love for us. And He who has walked the path on our behalf, always walks beside us to deepen our understanding and to strengthen our relationship with Him through the sharing of His joy.
__________
He who sustains the entire universe is more than able to provide all the strength you need for this day.
__________
Only a bond-slave of Christ is truly free to be the servant to others God has ordained him to be. Every believer is called to be a minister--motivated by love and humility to put the needs of others above His own.
__________
Two words you can never say too often: "Thank you."
__________
Use the strength of a submissive heart to empower those you love to be everything He has called them to be.
__________
Any so-called "right" that is not inexorably linked to inviolable responsibilities is (to use an old King James word) lasciviousness.
__________
Quit trying to earn grace. Embrace the weaknesses that make it necessary and possible. Then, He can perfect His strength in you for your good and His glory.
__________
A quote I encountered today in my reading:
'The line separating good from evil passes not through states, not between classes, not between political parties either--but right through every human heart." Solzhenitsyn
__________
For what it's worth. In "evaluating" people in a position of power, I always ask myself one question: How many of the fruit of the Spirit do they demonstrate in their daily interactions with other people--friend and foe alike? Love. Joy. Peace. Gentleness. Goodness. Patience. Kindness. Faithfulness. Self-control. If those are not evident in their daily lives, they are not God's man or woman.
