Then it hit me. Angels don't have to eat, sleep or breathe. We do. It doesn't cost them anything to praise God, but every breath we use to praise Him is one we can never have back. My heartbeats and breaths are limited in number. Every one of my life's breaths I spend is a gift that I can give that no angel can.
If I sing praises out of obligation or as a "song service," I waste a golden opportunity. But if I sing that praise knowing that I spend (like money) part of my LIFE to praise God, Then I can know that I give God praise that puts every angel to shame. No angel can praise God like I can! No angel can give his heartbeats and his breath to God's glory!
Then I saw the angel's eyes water up with joy and he lept up and rejoined in praise. It was like he knew that he couldn't give what I could, but by helping me to see how I could, he got to share in the reward of my praise to God.
I don't know if this was a "real" vision from God or if it was my imagination focused on God, But I do know that the message is true.
Spend your life's breaths in the praise and glory of God and give Him the gift that only we, His children, can give.
Praise The LORD!
