It's amazing how worship can lift your spirit...theres something about the words you declare and the melody of the songs that draws you closer and nearer to God.
Worship is one of my favourite parts of the church service because I feel Gods presence over me and I know I'm at peace. Worships means giving all glory and adoration to God for his mighty works. John 4 vs 17 says "True worship has nothing to do with the external but everything with the internal, your heart, spirit and soul".
True worship comes from the heart, its not something were obliged to do - its natural and comes from within. God created worship to draw us closer to him so that we can develop our own individual and personal relationship with him. The power worship has over you can not be described in words - sometimes i cry, sometimes i smile but ultimately I'm filled with joy because i know all my troubles are far away and god is in control.
The christian journey is never easy, theres always obstacles in the way - sometimes you take a step forward and two steps backwards but thats what a journey is about at the end of the day. I personally feel that worship is an important part of the christian journey because it draws you closer to God despite what your going through.
The last couple of years haven't been great for me but every time I get into the attitude of worship - I feel God speaking to me and telling me not to worry because he's in control.
I just want to take this opportunity to encourage people not to give up, life is full of trials and tribulations and its never going to be easy. One thing that can help is developing a relationship with god and worship can help strengthen that relationship.
Stay blessed xxx
