It
would be worth getting to worship this week..., if only to sing our
Savior’s praise.
When people have done something
kind for us, we feel a real desire to thank them.
And the more greatly they have benefited us, the more
extravagantly we care to express our appreciation.
How true that is in our
relationship with God! We owe our very existence
to him, and every breath we take. He has
breathed into us eternal life by way of his Spirit, operating
through his Word. Our dear Lord sacrificed his
own Son, our Savior, rather than destroying us for our sins.
His resurrection to life is our everlasting victory.
All of this is such magnificent
news that it will not do merely to acknowledge it occasionally, or
even to speak about it once in awhile. No, we
must regularly sing our praise to God—just as we will do when he
delivers us into his presence in paradise.
Singing our Savior’s praise is another great reason to get to church
every week!
Sing to the Lord, praise his name;
proclaim his salvation day after day (Psalm 96:2)
