Worship

I apologize for the lack in posting last week. I had an exam and was quite busy preparing for that but it went well so that is good!

So the topic I'm going to be discussing today is worship. Last Thursday at our all campus gathering, the speaker spoke on the topic of worship. I don't know about you but worship is one of my favorite things. I love getting lost in a great worship song whether that be an old hymnal or a new up-beat song. When I heard that this was the topic, to be honest I almost zoned out, I mean, I've got this worship thing down. I just finished my exam and was ready to just call it a day but God had a different thing in mind for me. The speaker had us get involved with the people around us and so I was prevented from just zoning out, which, it is a good thing that I didn't. We were told how worship is not something that you just go to church or Cru or whatever it may be to do. Worship is an all day everyday thing. You see, worship is not just singing to God, it's what we spend our time doing. For example, if we spend all of our day just lazing around playing video games or watching TV, we are worshiping those things. I'm not condemning video games or TV by any means. What I am saying, however, is that we are worshiping something at every moment in our lives. When we do something for ourselves and don't have a mind at all for God, we are worshiping something other than God. We need to be aware of what we are doing and why we are doing it. We can't let our worship of other things besides God take over our lives. Our God is a jealous god and we need to keep that in mind, when we put our time and energy into something that doesn't glorify Him, he becomes jealous. So just keep that in mind the next time you want to watch TV for a couple of hours when you haven't spent some time with God that day.
Thanks for your time and I hope that this blog can be an encouragement for you! Until next time, God bless!
