The organ music echoed throughout the
sanctuary. People began rocking and moving their bodies with the strike of each
chord played. The sound of baritone voices shifted everyone’s attention to the
back of the church. The male chorus swayed side to side as they marched into
the sanctuary.
The first annual concert of the
Community Male Chorus was underway. Their theme was, You Can’t Stop My Praise. In the midst of the service, you could
feel the joy in the atmosphere. Nothing could stop the positive energy of
praise. I left feeling rejuvenated and thought to myself...How often do we
take the time to praise the Lord, just because we can?
Start your day with an attitude of
gratitude, a jump for joy, give a shout in the shower. Don’t let anything stop
your praise. You may be anticipating a day of meetings, appointments, or facing
health challenges, but don’t back down before your breakthrough. Praise anyway.
You may be the light that someone else needs, to see their way through a
situation.
Every day is a blessing and another
opportunity to shout praises. You may not be listening to organ music or
bobbing your head as a choir marches in, but you can praise in your own
fashion. Let your light shine.
