Seeing everything in life as an opportunity to worship God!
Song of the Day “Captivate Us” by Watermark Devotional thought In today’s world, to ask anyone to have a singular focus is just about ludicrous!

If you are having trouble finding joy and peace in your life, instead of overly focusing on those things maybe all you need is to refresh yourself in the God who gives us a Living Hope in His Son, through the power of His Spirit!
The answer to the original question is no, you do not have to sing. But, I would say that you are missing out on a special method of praise and worship that brings honor to the God you love! I would also say that if you choose not to sing, then you are making a decision to disobey the God who I know you love and want to please. Make a decision today to sing, to light your heart on fire through song, and to commit yourself to never stop singing! He deserves our utmost praises!
I simply cannot imagine a world without the light of Christ in it. Yes, there is so much darkness in our world today, but if you removed all of the light and influence that Jesus brings to this world, it is absolutely terrifying what would be remaining (if anything at all!). Thank the Lord for all of the blessings He does bestow on this world, even though in so many ways we reject Him. He truly is a gracious God, slow to anger and abounding in love!
It is so important to keep our eyes fixed upon the Savior of our souls in these times. Maybe you can’t see Him anymore in your situation, my encouragement to you is to quiet yourself enough you to listen for and hear His voice leading you out of your storm!
What can separate us from the unfailing love of God? Nothing! Receive it for yourself today, dwell in it, and give thanks to God for His love for you! He truly is a good and loving God, praise His name! God’s love truly is meant for you and me to personally enjoy! Are you enjoying it?
I love this remake of the old hymn, Amazing Grace, as it declares, “My chains are gone, I’ve been set free!”, praise God! I hope that your hope is secure in the freedom that Christ has offered you. I pray that you have been inspired as you listen and sing this song, and that your faith is in Jesus Christ and the grace that He offers all of us.
Gracefully Broken is a great song to remind us of how our weakness can position us to receive God’s power. When in our weakness we call out to God‘s intervention then we will see the mighty hand of God coming in and delivering us from our trials and circumstances. All to Jesus we surrender, and when we do we align ourselves with His redeeming power. And there is no greater force in all of the universe than that!
