Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Let's not be limited to singing only in church buildings and sanctuaries. Worship is a whole body and heart worship from all of our life (Romans 12:1-2; Matthew 22:36-40), based on our joy for what God has done for us in Jesus (Romans 5:6-11). Let's make today a day of joyful songs as we sing our thanks and praise to God!

My Prayer...

Dear Father in Heaven, thank you for giving the gift of music to your human creatures. Thank you for all those gifted to write and share praise songs that bring joy to our hearts. We want you to be pleased with our praise as we listen and sing "joyful songs" to show our love for you and our heartfelt thanks to you for all you do and the blessings you have lavished upon us. In Jesus' name, we thank and praise you. Amen.
