Good morning.
The main reason we meet together with fellow followers of Christ is to worship God - Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We do this in various ways - serving, singing, encouraging.
Paul encourages us to do this together. "Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts." (Colossians 3:16)
The words of the hymn "Fairest Lord Jesus" focuses our thoughts on our awesome Saviour.
"Fairest Lord Jesus!
Ruler of all nature!
O Thou of God and man the Son!
Thee will I cherish,
Thee will I honor,
Thou, my soul’s glory, joy, and crown!
Fair are the meadows
Fairer still the woodlands,
Robed in the blooming garb of spring;
Jesus is fairer,
Jesus is purer,
Who makes the woeful heart to sing!
Fair is the sunshine,
Fairer still the moonlight,
And all the twinkling starry host;
Jesus shines brighter,
Jesus shines purer,
Than all the angels heav’n can boast!"
Today we have the opportunity to gather with other followers of Christ to worship Him. Let's do so with joy in our hearts.
Blessings.
Mike and Daphne
