English Standard Version
Beauty in the world is worth supporting. It's amazing to think of how many treasures in art museums exist because patrons were willing to spend money on art, to support artists who were creating something beautiful.
Here, the people in those days are providing portions for those who sing songs of praise and thanksgiving to God. It's a wondrous image -- the entire city gathering around this group of people who are singing and uplifting the city through their praising of God.
May we follow where the Holy Spirit leads us and support beautiful things in this world, wherever it may be, and may we be uplifted by that beauty, all of it turning our hearts to praise God.
