Your words, Lord are spirit and life “Let the words of my mouth and the thought of my heart find favor before you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.” Psalm 19:15
In this Christian Unity Week that ends this weekend, this passage is worth pondering. Words that we use can make a big difference. Words can be hurtful. Words can divide, rather than unite. Even our thoughts can be divisive and unpleasant. That is where being surrounded by the musical word can change our attitude and behavior. The sung word, especially with a sacred text can be inspirational.
Is there a line from a song that is especially meaningful to you that would quell your heart or those that hear it? Maybe there is a line you will pick up this weekend at Mass that will quell your heart. Take it to heart and share the message with those around you.
