## Resource

The story of the birth of John the Baptist ends with a beautiful hymn/prophecy sung by Zechariah - it breaks the silence of unbelief and praises God for what he has done, what he is doing and what he will do. From being mute, Zechariah is finally loud and clear in his praise to God. In the late 1990's Soul Survivor Church in Watford, England found that they needed to relook at how they worshipped God at a church service, so they had a period of silence - rather than simply singing songs as part of a service they remained silent until a song of praise came from their heart. During this period, their worship leader, Matt Redman, reflected on this and wrote the song 'Heart of Worship' which restored and renewed the sense of worship to God that the church needed. Is there the need for you too, to pause, reflect on how you worship God, and if need be, be silent so as to restore a heart of praise and be 'loud and clear' for God?Luke 1:67-80
