Given it was our Songs of Praise service on Sunday...The great philosopher and theologian, Augustine of Hippo, allegedly proclaimed: 'to sing is to pray twice'.
As we make our way through life, how do we travel - with a song in our step, or snipe at our circumstances? Rather than seeing what we don't have, what we can't do, or muttering at the state of our world without doing anything about it, I wonder if a more positive approach would be to try to intentionally develop an attitude of gratitude? It doesn't mean we don't see and acknowledge the hard stuff of life, but it just might help us get through it... and even become the ones who effect change.
This week, what songs of gratitude will you sing?
