Worship: (See the first commandment: Exd 20:3) Worship
is so cool! We get to thank God for what He has done! And many things can be done
in thanks to God! We usually sing when we go to Church and this is beautiful, but
there are other senses aside from hearing. If you are gardening, then garden for
Him! You can say thanks for all of the wonderful plants and foods He has given
us. They are so strong and yet delicate (Romans 8:1). Or, if you are a teacher,
then teach for Him! Jesus loves how children receive Him with joy and are not
weighed down by the weight of the world. They just trust (Matthew 19:14; Mark
10:14; Luke 18:16). There is so much that He has for us! Let’s worship Him!
Also, let’s remember God
deserves our worship! He is God and He is good. He loves us so much and has
done so much for us! He is perfect. He even sent His Son to die for us so that
we could be set free from sin and separation from right relationship. All we
have to do is receive Him by having faith in Him! This is amazing! He is amazing.
I’d say that worship, then, is partially there to realize how good He is! It’s
fun, an honor, and fitting to praise Him (Psalm 147:1). It is yet another gift that
God gives us! Let’s talk to Him and tell Him thanks!
In
Leviticus, Exodus and Numbers, there are many accounts of God telling His
people how to worship. The heart of these messages apply to us today. All of
the senses are involved. There is woodcarving, building, sewing, tent-making,
incense-burning, food-preparation, singing, dancing, talking with Him; everything
and anything. God shows us that He deserves the best and we get to hang out with
Him, our God!!! Wow, Praise God! (Plus, a beautiful side note is that after
writing this section, God really put it on my heart to learn more about worship.
