JESUS THE SUPREME EXAMPLE

Matthew 26:30 "AND WHEN THEY HAD SUNG A HYMN, THEY WENT OUT INTO THE MOUNT OF OLIVES."Of all the examples we could point to for encouragement not to stop singing our song, the supreme example has to be Christ.......He never stopped singing.
In the garden, in the shadow of the cross He sings "Not my will but thine be done. "They plucked His beard, they rejected Him and beat Him and nailed Him to a cross, and the devil thought he had silenced the song, but from the cross He sings, "Father, Forgive them, for they know not what they do."He dies on the cross... He is buried and the tomb is sealed...The devil thinks he has silenced His song. But on the third day the tomb burst open with Jesus robed in splendor and He's singing, "Ain't no grave gonna hold my body down. "He said, "Devil...you can't have my song, and I'm gonna give this song to my children, and you can't have their song either.
And because Jesus never stopped singing, He gave us a song that we never have to stop singing.And one day we will join the heavenly host and sing a song the angels cannot sing... "Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me.... I once was lost but now I'm found, was blind but now I see."
