Songs, Sainsburys and Stones

 Hello, my name is Joel! and I was out walking my dog today with this very repetitive, very good song stuck in my head;

Being in the middle of field I could sing as loud as I wanted, and it was incredibly liberating. But, why should I need liberating? I'd like to think the reason I wouldn't sing  God-rock at the top of my voice in Sainsburys, is simply because I'm not a good singer... or perhaps because I wouldn't sing anything at the top of my voice in Sainsburys. But. If it were totally normal to voice your opinions through song, I still can't be certain I would be belting out "Oh Happy Day" while browsing the frozen foods isle.

As a part of gods creation, we should love to worship, the way we live our lives should worship him every day. God doesn't rely on our worship, he doesn't need it from us - his creation needs to worship him! And here is an awesome verse about it:

"Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, "Teacher, rebuke your disciples!" "I tell you," he replied, "if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out." - Luke 19:39-40

If humans stopped worshiping god, the stones would cry out! And if that happened... 
I'd be envious of those damn stones.
