Have you ever needed a large dose of uplift? Where do you go to get it? Perhaps you revert to a cup of tea or coffee or a caffeine rich soft drink? Do they really help or are the just a panacea that lasts maybe an hour and then you find yourself down again?
Are you the athletic type who goes outside for a run or if your my age, perhaps for a long walk? Do you call a friend and just gab for a while? Both of these certainly inspire the blood to flow and perhaps your mind to be more alert and your spirit blessed.
What inspires and thrills me is two things: Sharing the gospel with someone who hasn’t met Jesus, and singing in a crowd of people in a large church with excellent acoustics. Well last night it was not to be – to late and no church available. But . . . A friend had mentioned a televised Hymn Sing entitled “Gerald Wolf Hymn Sing.” I turned on my TV, and what a pleasant surprise! I sang for three hours! It was difficult even then, to turn off the music and get to sleep. I felt so enthralled that I wondered if I’d be able to sleep. I slept very well!
If you like music, gospel music, try a Gaither performance or one the above mentioned programming. You’ll be blessed and happy that you took the risk.
