Sing Praises to the Lord!

We as believers have the express privilege of singing praises to the Lord. We are the only ones that can truly do it. The Scripture is very clear that there is one God (Exodus 20:2-3) and one Mediator between Him and man. (1st Timothy 2:5) Jesus Christ has made it possible for us to know the Father (John 17:3) and correspondingly give Him praise for who He is and for what He has done.
It has been a joy to see the recent formation of the children's choir at Grace Baptist Church. Listening to the children share special music last Sunday and hearing them practice again yesterday truly was "music to my ears". And I trust to the Lord as well.
As children of God we have so much to sing about. How I love the truth found in 1st Peter 2:9
"But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light."
May we bless the Lord at all times, may His praise be forever on our lips!
