Prayer, Song, and Thought for the Day

Prayer for the Day—Harps on Willow    
Lord I am asking you to give special help to that Christian musician who feels “used up” and is burnt out.  Help that musician to take immediate advantage of musical praise which is a means of grace to that troubled Christian.  Help that musician to “sing one of the songs of Zion” as an act of praise and adoration to You—even if he or she does not feel like praising Your wonderful name.  Let this act of musical worship be a sincere “sacrifice of praise’ unto You.  Lord, I am humbly asking You to replace that musician’s sadness, melancholy, and self pity with the simple joy that comes when a Christian musician sings and plays one of Your songs.  These things I am praying in your name.  Amen. 
 Song for the DayJoyful, Joyful We Adore Thee by Henry van Dyke  
Thought for the Day—The next time you are depressed think about the fact that you have been chosen to praise God with music, and that sometimes people even pay you to do it!
