HASTENING THE LORD’S WORK WITH MUSIC
The Lord is hastening His work! (We are not hastening His work)
The hastening must also occur within each of us.
Music is an essential part of hastening.
Our musical offering must bring others closer to Christ.
“Only our best is good enough for the Lord” (Elder David A. Bednar)
