Is Somebody Singing?
August 17, 2014

Read: John 17:20-26

[Bear] with one another in love, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. —Ephesians 4:2-3

Bible in a Year:
Psalms 97-99; Romans 16

From 200 miles above Earth, Chris Hadfield, Canadian astronaut and commander of the International Space Station, joined in song with a group of students in a studio on Earth. Together they performed “Is Somebody Singing,” co-written by Hadfield and Ed Robertson.

One phrase of the song caught my attention: “You can’t make out borders from up here.” Although we humans draw many lines to separate ourselves from one another—national, ethnic, ideological—the song reminded me that God doesn’t see such distinctions. The important thing to God is that we love Him and each other (Mark 12:30-31).

Like a loving father, God wants His family united. We cannot accomplish what God has for us to do if we refuse to be reconciled with one another. In His most impassioned prayer, on the night before He was crucified, Jesus pleaded with God to unite His followers: “That they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us” (John 17:21).

Singing illustrates unity as we agree on the lyrics, chords, and rhythms. Singing can also promote unity as it binds us together in peace, proclaims God’s power through praise, and demonstrates God’s glory to the world.

O for a thousand tongues to sing
My great Redeemer’s praise,
The glories of my God and King,
The triumphs of His grace. —Wesley

Singing God’s praises will never go out of style.

Insight

Jesus’ prayer for the unity of believers (17:20-26) is one of the beautiful theological passages of the gospel of John. It discusses both the relationship between God the Father and Jesus as well as the duration of that relationship. Jesus roots His desire for the church to be one in His own relationship with God the Father. Their relationship is characterized by mutual knowledge, love, and glory. Not only does this prayer call for unity in the church, but it shows the unique relationship between Jesus and the Father that existed before the foundation of the world (v.25).

Hi Kitty Mittens!

My three hour recording session went GREAT. We got two songs recorded, with drums, bass, piano, acoustic guitar, voice, and Back-up vocals, final mixdown, and a cd burned.

In three hours.

I also taught my young student a few basic audio-engineering skills, such as track assignment, equalization, compression, special effects, and punching in/out.

It came out AWESOME!

So happy to hear of your rain.

I just took Marissa to the Pastor’s house for a Youth Group Swim Party. It is a miserable 100 degrees out there. Ughhhh

Thank you for your wonderful posts. Wishing everyone a lovely Lord’s Day.

[JustAmy]

Sounds like a great day!
