Worship Music for Sunday, February 19th, 2017

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. (Colossians 3:16)

Music is a big part of the life of a church. And it as meant to be done together -- to the glory of God and for the building up of the Body. Songs not only express worship to God, but they "teach and admonish" (that means "to warn") each other. And where does it originate? "With thankfulness in your hearts to God"!

As you begin to prepare yourself and your family to gather with the saints at The Ridge this Sunday, remind yourself of all you have to be thankful for. Let your mind dwell on the goodness of God, even if your circumstances are not ideal. We have a sign that hangs over the entrance to our family room in our house that says, "There is ALWAYS something to be thankful for." Let that gratitude stir your hearts to greater affection for Jesus and bring that "thanks-full" heart to church with you Sunday and let it explode with joyful adoration to our great God and Savior!

Here is the soundtrack to your thankfulness this week...
