Beloved,
Worship is the only indispensable
activity of God's people - Biblically, confessionally, historically, and
traditionally; and, for those of us in that part of the Kingdom called the
PCUSA, constitutionally.
It is what we say and do when we
recognize in highest degree who He is, who we are, and what He has done for us
and our salvation through Jesus.
God's people hunger and thirst to
worship.
Repeat.
God's people hunger and thirst to
worship.
Repeat.
God's people hunger and thirst to
worship.
And when they/we do, they/we are
lost/immersed/healed in wonder, love, and praise.
It's the pulse, power, breathe,
and so much, much, much more of life - now and then.
Peterson: "Worship shapes the
human community in response to the living God. If worship is neglected or
perverted, our communities fall into chaos or under tyranny."
He goes on, "Our times are not
propitious for worship. The times never are. The world is hostile
to worship. The Devil hates worship. As The Revelation makes clear,
worship must be carried out under conditions decidedly uncongenial to it."
Come, let us worship God.
Blessings and Love!
