Music is such a big part of Christmas at our
house. Christmas music plays all
day. See, we all love music. This year we were able to attend by livestream
the advent concert at Wheaton college.
We have done this in other years but we would watch and work. This year we took time from a busy day and
sat down and attended start to finish.
The theme was “Let the Stable Still Astonish.” There were no breaks for applause, just a
smooth seamless flow of music pointing to Jesus. We were led in reflection, joy, soul
searching, and praise. It led to being
astonished at what God did for us. Different
genres of music and art melded together to lead us to a final declaration of
praise in the “Hallelujah Chorus”. It
set us up for worship this advent. Is
your heart set to worship this advent? As
I reflect on what God did for me, I must worship Him. I challenge you to sit down and listen to an
advent concert, or read an advent reading.
Turn off the outside world and reflect on what happened at advent so
long ago. Then go back and worshipping,
join the world around you!
