I went Christmas caroling with 12 little girls and one little boy tonight! They are members of the children's Bible study group that meet at my house every Thursday night. We had such a good time! We actually went out in our cars and visited older couples in our church (my 50 year old friend was horrified that she had been labeled an 'older couple', sorry Maria!). It was so, so beautiful! The children didn't want to stop.
They were amazing. Their little faces were joyful. I was watching them singing their little hearts out, at the top of their big ole lungs. Man, they were belting em out! There was not a shred of self-conscieneness! They were praising and singing about the birth of their Lord.
Too often, as adults we sing softly, try to at least keep our voices in harmony...these kids simply did not care and they blessed every single family we sang to.
I told them that I was certain that Jesus was watching them, smiling and tapping his feet along with them!

1 Chronicles 16:9 says:
Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts.
It doesn't say to sing in key or sing a little more quietly. Simply sing!
Fa-la-la-la-la la-la-la LAAAAAH!
