Psalm 100

Psalm 100:2
Serve the LORD with gladness;
Come before Him with joyful singing.
I understand service.  It's practically in my blood.  My dad has been running sound boards for churches since before I was born.  As far back as I can remember, I was carrying microphones and cables for set-up and tear-down.  As I got older, that turned into setting up chairs and running slides for worship.  Service is part of who I am.

However, I've also for a long time had a problem with gladness.  As part of suppressing the outward signs of my ADD & ADHD, I shut down a lot of my emotions.  With that, gladness and joy are a very rare occurrence for me.  I don't know what joy there is for me in service; it's just doing what needs to be done.
