Worship

          “Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you.”

                   Psalm 63:3

          Why do you worship God?  Do you worship Him out of the overflow of love for Him?  Do you worship Him because that is just what you think you are supposed to do?  Do you worship Him because others around you are doing it?

          True worship should come from the depths of your soul.  Recently we went to a funeral of a friend who died too young.  Our hearts were selfishly sad that he was no longer with us.  This service was the most unusual I had ever been to.  The Praise and Worship band was playing, singing, and worshiping God.  Song after song led me into a deep worship of the goodness of God so deep that the tears for the loss of our friend turned into sheer joy for the sake of worshipping the God who created us.  It was a very moving experience. 

          Find what works to help you worship God in such a way.  For me it is music.  For my friend, it is the beach.  For others, it is reading the Bible and focusing on God.  Abandon yourself to worship Him today.
