Let Everyone Sing
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!” Luke 2:13-14
Lip synchronization refers to people who pretend to be singing but are actually only moving their lips. During live performances many vocalists use this method to preserve their voices. But many fans don’t want to pay money to see their favorite stars pretending to sing. For the believer we called not to lip synch but engage our voices and hearts when singing unto God.
It’s easy for us to engage in a form of lip syncing. We can “mouth” the words of carols without really thinking of the words or absorbing the meaning. How many of us have stood in church and sung while our mind was wandering far away? Or did we moved our mouth without truly singing?
Not this Christmas! The wonder of Christmas—the birth of Christ and the hope of salvation—leads us to express our joy through song, just as it was that first Christmas.
Express your joy through music today and sync your heart to heaven’s choirs.
Prayer for today: Heavenly Father, help me today to engage my heart and voice when singing unto Your name. Amen
