Lingering thoughts on Worship~
On Sundays,
the day we set aside
I have seen ~
Hands folded
Hands opened
Hands lifted
a heart expressing
worship outwardly,
telling God how much
her love is for HIM.
declaring answers to
the whys
of her existence

Created for Fellowship
Created to Worship
Our Creator and the
Creator of the Universe
longs for
Praise & Worship.
It is He,
God who desires our fellowship.
Worship costs...
requires time & attention
But, is HE not worth it?
When it is over,
life on this earth,
my worship to God
will be all that was of value.
In His word it speaks of
something filling my spot
in worship.
His creation can take my place,
because the majesty of God demands worship.
The blessings can be ours
when we worship...
we become more like Him.
Psalm 24:1-6
The earth is Jehovah's, and the fulness thereof;
The world, and they that dwell therein.
For he hath founded it upon the seas,
And established it upon the floods.
Who shall ascend into the hill of Jehovah?
And who shall stand in his holy place?
He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart;
Who hath not lifted up his soul unto falsehood,
And hath not sworn deceitfully.
He shall receive a blessing from Jehovah,
And righteousness from the God of his salvation.
This is the generation of them that seek after him,
That seek thy face, even Jacob. Selah
Her hands
folded
open
and lifted
are spotted with age
her vision is dim
and her days are
numbered.
She sits in a
wheelchair
at the end of the pew
and lifts her
weak voice
to utter praises
to Him.
The sight is mine to treasure
and the heart of God rejoices.
How well do we worship?
Lord, may my worship be pleasing to you,
I desire clean hands and a pure heart
filled with praise to you.
