Today’s
#AdventWord is #Sing
Singing
has always been a core practice of God’s people, in whatever circumstance they
find themselves. The Psalms are the songbook of our faith, songs for every situation:
one third of them are laments. Singing resonates with something deeply,
universally human. I’m reminded of being in a rugby stadium, the home team
having a tough day at the office, the crowd rallying them again with song. Or
intimidating the team set against them. But if that team can silence the home
support, they steal a huge advantage.
I
don’t mind Christmas carols, but I love Advent carols. Majors give quick wins
in the present moment, but minors carry the hope of generations for future
glory.
