Psalm 150 (The Message)

Hallelujah!
Praise God in his holy house of worship, praise him under the open skies; Praise him for his acts of power, Praise him for his magnificent greatness; Praise with a blast on the trumpet, praise by strumming soft strings; Praise him with castanets and dance, praise him with banjo and flute; Praise him with cymbals and a big bass drum, praise him with fiddles and mandolin. Let every living, breathing creature praise God!
Hallelujah!

A Little More On The Prison Service

This in from Fearless Leader MARK MILLS

It never fails. We go out to the prison to do our “Christian Duty” , and we end up being the ones blessed. Isn’t that the way God works, though? Every time we get a set together for Riverbend, it seems our hearts are the ones being lifted. God’s Spirit moves among these men, and they are so eager to have us share in that joy. Seems odd, huh? Joy, inside of a prison. But with the singing going on Sunday night (them and us), I’m surprised the walls didn’t just fall in, like in the Bible. So often, prisoners are put away, never to be thought of again, not even by their own families. Thank God, He never forgets them, and just like with us, meets them where they are. May we always be so aware of His presence.
