Psalm
149:1
Praise
ye the Lord. Sing unto the Lord a new song, and his praise in the congregation
of saints.
Pete
took his dinner from the oven and sat down at the table to eat. He hadn't
decided whether or not to go to church. For some reason the spirit just didn't
seem to be moving him. Maybe he was getting too old for Christmas. As he bowed
his head to pray over his meal, he heard the voices of distant carolers singing
familiar old Christmas songs. His head flooded with joyous memories of the days
of Christmases past. The spirit so absent moments before surged through him.
With a lightness of heart, Pete dug into his meal, eating quickly to insure
that he wouldn't be late for the Christmas Eve service.
Prayer:
Fill my heart with songs of praise and joy. Send the light of the world into my
life, and shine forth through me so that others might see how wonderful You
are. Amen.
