Worship Is …

Worship is about responding to God. We celebrate His goodness, we bow beneath His greatness, we thank Him for His kindness and embrace Him in His nearness . . . and much more besides . . .
There is a time to praise the Lord enthusiastically and a time to simply be still, whether we dance, shout or bow, the focus is Jesus.
As we offer up our songs, we often begin to experience a seep sense of His presence. It is a time of intimacy where we can meet with God. Worship gives us the chance to give God the thankfullness in our hearts and the praise He deserves, “yet we can never out-give the Giver”.
Worship is about the whole of our lives. It’s the things we do, the things we say, the way we treat people and our attitude to life. Music, however, is a powerful and indeed biblical, expression of this.
