    One of the greatest revelations of David's life was the power of song. No one understood praise any better than David, and no one understood the power of a song like David. A song is more than words strung together to a tune. A song is a helper, a companion, and a weapon.

    The Beatitudes are a beautiful picture of the character of Christ and of consecrated Christians. Why would such a lifestyle depicted in the first seven beatitudes provoke persecution rather than admiration and esteem?
