1087) Music has always been important to me, so much so that I use a lot of it at school. Every week in my language arts classroom, I pick out 4 songs in a wide range of genres. The students listen to them while following along with the lyrics and we discuss them afterwards. This has always been a popular activity and by the end of the year, we have quite a playlist we listen to while working on other projects in class. This is one confirmation of what I already knew; music is powerful and a valuable gift.

As is true with all good gifts, they come from God (James 1:17) and music takes thoughts and mixes in feelings that have the potential to be expressed on a level I feel can fall into the supernatural category.

Ephesians 5:19-20 encourages us to use music to communicate our gratitude to God for all he has done for us and the good news is, God doesn’t mind if we’re on key or not.

Keep singing!
