PBPC Advent Devotional, Week 3 - Saturday
Saturday
Psalm 96:1-3
1 O sing to the Lord a new song;
sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Sing to the Lord, bless his name;
tell of his salvation from day to day.
3 Declare his glory among the nations,
his marvelous works among all the peoples. (NRSV)
These verses in the psalm just about say it all: God created us; God rescued us. God is marvelous and we rejoice and sing to him.
What is a piece of God's marvelous works that moves you to joy? As you ponder that, know that you give joy to God when you notice and take delight in him.
Daily Practice
Put on a YouTube of a favorite hymn or worship song. If you need a suggestion, go to the PBPC YouTube channel and listen to one that Mary has recorded for us. Sing a song to God!

Add to your gratitude list. Today, list three little things for which you are grateful – a warm cup of coffee; a friendly smile on a Zoom or voice on the phone; the sun on your face, or refreshment of rain on our arid landscape; the beauty of a sunrise or sunset. They are God's gift to you: thank him for them. Is there anyone with whom you can share something for which you are grateful?
