On Tuesday we could picture a glad crowd of worshippers singing Psalm 98 at Solomon’s beautiful Temple. Today we read words to what was probably a house church in Colossae (modern day Turkey). They may have had as few as 15 or 20 people worshipping in a hostile city. But they, too, sang psalms of praise, with hearts grateful to God.
- “Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly” (v. 16). In what ways do the various “right-brain” expressions (music, visual arts, poetry, dance, etc.) add richness to your Christian life? Which art forms most enrich your worship during Advent?
- What does “whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus” (verse 17) mean to you? How can you, e.g., find a parking spot, relate to your boss, or return a purchase “in the name of the Lord Jesus”? What steps have you found helpful to keep yourself aware of this in your everyday activities?
