I'll Sing It!

Good Morning, Loved Ones,

November has arrived! This is the designated month for gratitude here in the US. Fortunately, you are among the faithful who practice it year-round. We have completed the first 11 months of Gimme Cinco. Over 3500 expressions of gratitude have been shared among us. The psalmist tells us that this is no time to quit sharing our gratitude.

Psalm 89 (The Message)

^1-4 Your love, God, is my song, and I'll sing it! I'm forever telling everyone how faithful you are.
I'll never quit telling the story of your love—
how you built the cosmos
and guaranteed everything in it.
Your love has always been our lives' foundation,
your fidelity has been the roof over our world.


I sing to the birthdays of so many up and coming saints celebrated in the last couple of weeks. Pastor Tom, Pastor Alfonso, Pastor Terry, Lisa Take, Greg Take, DeDe Behrens . . . and many others who never quit telling the story of God's love. "Ba-ba-da-ba-ba-ba - Happy Birthday to you! Cha-Cha-Cha!"

I sing to the youth, their leader, Randy, and to all those who contributed to make the Lock-in a "great success!" "It's the song of the redeemed rising from the Grandview Park basement! It's all God's children singing, Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! He reigns!"

I sing to the adult Sunday school class that faithfully meets every Sunday at 9:45 under Pastor Tom's leadership. It's clear that God's love is the foundation of their world. "What more can He say than to you He hath said—To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?"

I sing to the children who celebrated a 'harvest party' Saturday night because Gely and Erandeni made it happen. "Little ones to Him belong. We are weak, but He is strong."

I sing to the glorious beauty of these fall days and the waning warmth of the sun as it goes to spread it's glory on the southern hemisphere. "For the beauty of the earth, For the glory of the skies, For the love which from our birth Over and around us lies, Lord of all, to thee we raise This our hymn of grateful praise."

What will make you sing out today? Don't keep it to yourself. Let's hear it.

Pastor Rick
