Worship is dicey. It risky. It's really about living authentically, smelling like Jesus. We like to say that it is about much more than the songs we sing in our little 15 minute window of time on a sunday, (which is a whole other discussion..) but I wonder if we truely embrace and believe that? We'd like to think that we do, right? But, how would it affect our lives (and the lives of others) if we really embraced the fact that that all that we do should be an "act of worship" honoring our amazing Creator, Savior, and King?
I guess for me it comes down to a different question - Am I really allowing God to work in my life? Am I allowing God to change me? Does my life look like more like "me" or like Him? It also requires me to be honest with myself and honest with others - which can be kinda painful right? But isn't those the real questions? Because it's only when I am willing to let Him change me, heal me, lead me and love through me, that I can become a true reflection of Him. What if we REALLY believed that true worship, while it does include the songs we sing, is really about pointing others to the Christ that has touched, healed, provided hope to, and is transforming all areas of our lives?
Is all that I am pointing to the continuing work of the Creator? Does my life reflect Jesus?
