There's plenty of people out there who do things out of obligation. It's funny when we ask the kids to clean their rooms. Not a lot of gladness there. It's probably the same way I deal with some of the requests to me!
But that's not how God wants us to serve. We're called to serve the Lord with gladness. We can only do this when we've reflected on what God has done for us -- that should plant gladness in our hearts.
And maybe there's something about singing that helps us be glad. Maybe when we sing, we train our hearts to be glad. I'm not a huge singer... but maybe I need to try this.
