Worship:
GO:
I ask myself this morning. as I sit to write....just what is worship? This is what I come up with. Worship is the feeling or expression of reverence for a deity. In my case it is God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Worship is something I do every morning and afternoon on Hwy 22 going to and from work. I do it in song/prayer. I look forward to my worship time then. I usually pray half way and then celebrate with worship music the other half of the trip. By the time I get to school I am all prayed up. I reverse it on the way home. I start with music and end in prayer and by the time I get home Frank does not get the brunt of a bad day.
I truly believe that I was made to bring pleasure to God in worship. From the first moment I stepped in a choir loft to sing God’s praises….whether it be a chancel choir….singing traditional music….or the Arbor singing contemporary songs….I am loving my God with every lyric, note, movement to the max. When I sing on Sunday’s….it is a case of total surrender for me….for a brief shining moment….I totally abandon myself into His arms….worship for me…..is a lifestyle. If I could only do one thing in my life…..it would be worship. When I go to church on Sunday….or Weds….or whatever day….it is my safety zone, my happy place … a place where I can find God….when I can’t seem to find Him anywhere else. I am refreshed here….I am revived here….I am renewed here….I am alive and I worship! This is what it is for me.....
We Have Come Into His House
Verse 1:
We have come into His house and gathered in His name to worship Him
We have come into His house and gathered in His name to worship Him
We have come into His house and gathered in His name to worship Him
Worship Christ the Lord. Worship Him, Christ the Lord
Verse 2:
Let's forget about ourselves concentrate on Him and worship Him
Let's forget about ourselves concentrate on Him and worship Him
Let's forget about ourselves concentrate on Him and worship Him
Worship Christ the Lord. Oh Worship Him, Jesus Christ the Lord
Verse 3:
Let's forget about ourselves magnify His Name and worship Him
Let's forget about ourselves magnify His Name and worship Him
Let's forget about ourselves magnify His Name and worship Him
Worship Christ the Lord. Oh Worship Him, Jesus Christ the Lord. Yep....worship....a feeling or expression of reverence for my Father...no matter where you might be and no matter how you choose to express yourself. Can I get an Amen!

Amen! Lovely. Popping in from FMF at (in)courage this week.
"I truly believe that I was made to bring pleasure to God in worship." I believe this too. It's also the only thing we can give back to Him, for His wonderful love. (visiting from FMF)
