Why Worship?
Why sometimes that we have a difficulty going to church? Some would tell us that it’s better to sleep late on Sunday, eat a leisurely breakfast, and lounge around talking with the family. And then maybe have lunch with friends or enjoy a picnic and games with your brothers and sister. Make it a day that’s different and even restful, “some would say but don’t waste time by going to church on Sunday!”
Worship? Who do you needs worship anyway? We all do! We need worship because we are unique creatures made in the image of God. We are for God, so we can’t our purpose unless we develop a right relationship with Him. And worship helps us to do that when we focus on the Lord.
As we join with other worshipers in church, our hearts are lifted out of this temporal. World into God’s eternal world. According to William temple, in worship the conscience is quickened by holiness of God, the MIND is fed by the truth of God, the Imagination is purged by the beauty of God, the Hear is opened to the love of God, and the will is devoted to the purpose of God. And we are helped onward in our goal of becoming more like God. Let’s decide now that every Sunday we will be in church with heart prepared worship.
