Did you know that your heart can sing?

Eph 5:18-19 NLT
[18] Don’t be drunk with wine, because that will ruin your life. Instead, be filled with the Holy Spirit, [19] singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs among yourselves, and making music to the Lord in your hearts.
以弗所書 5:18-19 CNV
「不要醉酒，醉酒能使人放蕩亂性，卻要讓聖靈充滿。 應當用詩章、聖詩、靈歌，彼此呼應，口唱心和地讚美主。」

The bible says that we should make melody in our hearts to Jesus! This is an exciting way to live our lives out of a place of praise and thanksgiving everyday!

Our hearts have a song that shapes our life
我們的心唱著一首塑造生命的歌
Proverbs 18:14 MSG
[14] A healthy spirit conquers adversity, but what can you do when the spirit is crushed?
箴言 18:14 CNV
[14]「人的心靈能忍受疾病， 心靈憂鬱，誰能承受呢？」

At Lifehouse Hong Kong, we want to have a healthy heart! One that can face lifes challenges with the strength of Jesus and overcome!

So how do me make sure our heart is singing the right song? Focus on Jesus!

What you focus on will determine your heart song
心之歌受你聚焦的地方影響
Philippians 4:6-9 NLT
[6] Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. [7] Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. [8] And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. [9] Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me-everything you heard from me and saw me doing. Then the God of peace will be with you.
腓立比書 4:6-9 CNV
[6]「應當毫無憂慮，只要凡事藉著禱告祈求，帶著感恩的心，把你們所要的告訴　神。[7] 這樣，　神所賜超過人能了解的平安，必在基督耶穌裡，保守你們的心思意念。 [8] 最後，弟兄們，凡是真實的、莊重的、公正的、純潔的、可愛的、聲譽好的，無論是甚麼美德，甚麼稱讚，這些事你們都應當思念。[9] 你們在我身上所學習、所領受、所聽見、所看見的，這些事你們都應當實行；那麼，賜平安的　神就必與你們同在。」

Jesus has given us so much to sing about. He saved us, blessed us, gave us a wonderful church family, heals us….so much to be thankful for!

But what about in the hard times? How can we stay encouraged and keep singing the right heart song?……

Journaling! At Lifehouse church, we love the bible! The word of God can change your life! But you have to also choose to believe the word! Add faith to what God is saying to you through your journaling.

Believe the word of God and let your heart sing!

靠著神的話語，讓你的心高歌！
Psalm 45:1 NIV
[1] My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.
詩篇 45:1 CNV
[1] 我心裡湧出優美的言辭； 我要為王朗誦我的作品； 我的舌頭像經驗豐富的作家的筆。
Colossians 3:16 NLT
[16] Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives. Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom he gives. Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts.
歌羅西書 3:16 CNV
[16]「你們要讓基督的道豐豐富富地住在你們心裡，以各樣的智慧，彼此教導，互相勸戒，用詩章、聖詩、靈歌，懷著感恩的心歌頌　神。」

Lets keep focused on Jesus, and his promises, and keep singing a song of praise to God in our hearts. Lets be a light in Hong Kong!
