{{Today I am linked with Lisa Jo Baker for Five Minute Friday. Here is how it works…. One word prompt. Five minutes. No editing. Lots of women. Equals a great time.}}

Today’s word?

WORSHIP.

I read the word & paused. Sat back in my chair & had to think about this. It was then I noticed I was humming a song….

“I’m coming back to the heart of worship & it’s all about You, all about You, Jesus.”

Quickly I realized that we have been created to worship. We all worship something. I want to worship Someone. Him.

I do not want my worship to be about a song, a dynamic worship leader, a worship team, the guitars, the lights. Don’t get me wrong those are all good things but should not be at the heart of my worship.

This morning as I thought on this prompt I remembered two quotes on worship that I had written in the back of my Bible:

  • Worship —> “Worth-ship, the acknowledgement of the worth is in our God.” (Donald Barnhouse)
  • “Worship is a way of gladly reflecting back to God the radiance of His worth.” (John Piper)

This morning I desire to worship Him & Him alone. There will be times that worship will be a sacrifice & times when it will come freely.

But may it always come!

May it always be only about Him!

“Come, let us bow down before the Lord our Maker, for he is our God.” (Psalm 95:6-7).

I have the feeling this song will be on repeat today for me….
