The Heart of Worship

This morning (5/25/14) as I participated in worship for the first time since my surgery, God reminded me of a simple yet powerful truth: True Worship is a matter of one's heart attitude regarding Who God is, what He has done (grace past), and what He will do (grace future).  If you failed to worship God today don't blame the music, the pastor, your church, your schedule, or anything other than yourself.  True worship comes when we recognize God for Who He is,  and in doing so worship Him for His goodness, His faithfulness, His provision, His love, His compassion, His strength, and so much more!

Did you worship God today? Did you marvel at His glory and grace? If you didn't... if you need a fresh awakening... look no further than your heart attitude of worship. 

When the music fades
and all has slipped away
and I simply come.
Longing just to be
something that's of worth
that will bless Your heart.

I'll bring You more than a song,
for a song in itself
is not what You have required.
You search much deeper within,
through the way things appear,
Your looking into my heart.

I'm coming back to the heart of worship and its all about You, its all about You, Jesus.
I'm sorry, Lord, for the thing I've made it when its all about You, its all about You, Jesus.

King of endless worth, no one could express how much you deserve.
Though I'm weak and poor, all I have is Yours, every single breath!

I'll bring You more than a song,
for a song in itself is not what You have required.
You search much deeper within,
through the way things appear,
Your looking into my heart.

I'm coming back to the heart of worship and its all about You, its all about You, Jesus.
I'm sorry, Lord, for the thing I've made it when its all about You, its all about You, Jesus.
