Nehemiah 11, 12

When the rebuilt wall of Jerusalem was dedicated with a special ceremony, a great musical expression was performed by singers, two choirs, and instruments. This great sound of rejoicing was so loud it could be heard far away. I believe the enthusiasm and heartfelt joy of all transcended the limits of artistic expression. Yes, it was no doubt done with excellence, but God loves a sincere heart above all else. Now, sincerity with excellence is over the top.

Paul encourages us to do everything “Heartily, as unto the Lord.”
