Ministry of Song
435
If it was essential for Moses to embody the commandments in
sacred song, so that as they marched in the wilderness, the children
could learn to sing the law verse by verse, how essential it is at this
time to teach our children God’s Word! Let us come up to the help of
the Lord, instructing our children to keep the commandments to the
letter. Let us do everything in our power to make music in our homes,
that God may come in.—

All Heaven Echoes the Note of Joy—We must bear in mind the
great joy manifested by the Shepherd at the recovery of the lost. He
calls upon His neighbors, “Rejoice with Me; for I have found My
sheep which was lost.” And all heaven echoes the note of joy. The
Father Himself joys over the rescued one with singing. What a holy
ecstasy of joy is expressed in this parable! That joy it is your privilege
to share.—
