Worship

"All the earth bows down to you; they sing praise to you, they sing praise to your name." Ps 66:4

I feel like everytime I teach something, that it is actually for my benefit. The things that God reveals to me for the purpose of sharing in prayer meeting, in Bible study, or random sharing. God reminds me of these lessons a week or so later. I am a hypocrite, but God is gracious.

A week ago, I briefly talked about praying to God. How often we bring a laundry list of items to God expecting Him to fix the problems we see? Our worship of Him falls so short. It falls short, because we barely know Him. Our understanding of Him is so limited. Our understanding ABOUT Him is pretty good, but what and how we experience Him is so shallow.

God, I want to know you. In my prayers, speech, and life... allow me to pay proper respect to You. Let me live a life that is pleasing to You, for Your glory, for Your Kingdom.
