Journal Entry 1- Worship

So... for Intro to Ministry class we are asked to journal for 50 days about our reflections on the different spiritual disciplines we read about, the next 50 entries are that.

Worship


Worship is a natural tendency for human beings, we are created to desire and be devoted to something or someone. The problem arises when we create idols by worshiping something other than God. In a book by James Stuart Bell he quotes D.L. Moody, "What he needs is to be directed aright," in regards to man and worship. I believe this to be true, and by strengthening spiritual disciplines worshiping our Lord will always be primary. I love defining worship as celebration. Laughing, singing, dancing, talking... all for the sake of showing our love to our God.
