Last Sunday was testimony meeting at our ward in Bielefeld, Germany. It was a special treat for me and I think the entire congregation. It was my feeling that it had not happened this way before.
The Bishopric Counselor who was conducting anounced the time for members to come to the pulpit and share their testimonies of Jesus Christ as is normally done the first Sunday of each month. But this time he asked for each member to include their favorite hymn and to tell how it brought them closer to Christ. So many people came to the front it was wonderful.
This special sharing from the members made me think of the importance of the hymns in my worship. Music is so important to me but the hymns are in a catagory different from other music. Singing heartfelt praises and remembrances of all He has done for us...for me personally...this is worship.
To that end, I took this picture of my work station. While sitting there for ten or eleven hours a day, I have tried to include music at times. This day I listened to the new hymns from the Gospel Library app.
Can you see which one of the hymns has become my new favorite? If you can, let me know in the comments below, or via email.
"...the song of the righteous is a prayer unto me, and it shall be answered with a blessing upon their heads." (D&C 25:12)
Have a wonderful week everyone!
