Give of Your Best to the Master

We had sung this hymn, "Give of Your Best to the Master" countless of time since we were young. Almost every consecration service or youth camps of retreats, we used this hymn as dedication song. It encouraged and inspired throughout my life to use God-given talents for His ministries. I am so thankful to God for whenever I see young and talented Christians serving God with their talents and Spiritual gifts. I also admire and thanks to many Gospel songs composers who challenge young people to serve God in their songs with powerful lyrics. The lyrics and poet touch many people's hearts those who sing and hear the music.


The bible says, "Sing to the LORD, all the earth; Proclaim good tidings of His salvation from day to day. Tell of His glory among the generations, His wonderful deeds among all peoples. For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; He also is to be feared above all gods."

(1 Chronicles 16:23-25). Mostly young people are talented in music, singing, and dancing. God has change the stuff of Moses to be a powerful tool to divide the sea into two; God used Paul's handkerchief to heal the sicks; and Jesus used a small meal of a kid and feed thousands of hungry followers. Still God is using many Christian music to convert many prodigal sons and daughter.



I always give thanks to God for many talented young people in our church who faithfully serving God with their musical talents. I believe God has given every church with dedicated musicians. Worship services and religious celebrations been always made alive because of inspirational music.

"AGAPE Music Band" of our church is planning to have another "Musical Concert" along with "Burmese Food Festival" this month. They will sing lots of praise songs, gospel songs, gospel rap, and also perform praise dance. Come and join us if you are at Bay Area that weekend.
