Midst Of Mystery!
"By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice
than Cain, through which he obtained witness that he
was righteous, God testifying of his gifts; and through
it he being dead still
speaks."
Hebrews 11: 4
Christian musical artist Seph Schlueter was touring and preparing
for a new album release when he and his wife received bad news.
The twenty-week ultrasound of the couple’s unborn baby girl no
longer
showed a heartbeat. That was the hardest month of his life,
he said, “I can still praise you in this pain, God, and in the midst
of mystery.”
When we worship the Lord, we’re offering a sacrifice to Him.
We learn to praise Him, even in the middle of pain and mystery.
Abel brought his worship and his
sacrifice to God by faith, and
God honored him for it. His example still speaks to us.
When we worship, we lift our hearts and voices upward to
One who is greater than our problems and pain, higher than
our hurts and wounds, and more eternal than our burdens on
earth. Worshiping transports us to the throne. It lifts us
above
the miry clay.
Practice saying, “Praise the Lord!”
throughout the day. Let’s offer
God
the sacrifice of praise.
"Without worship we
go about miserable."
A. W. Tozer
