Made to Worship
One of my favorite ways to worship the Lord is through song. Whether I'm by myself or in a crowd at church, I love getting to sing to Him. I find great joy in worshipping because the God who formed me created me to worship. The word "worship" is most often associated with music at church, but it's so much more than that: Worshipping is fulfilling what we are made to do. As people who were designed to worship our Creator, we are given so many opportunities to do more than sing. God has given each of us talents, gifts, and interests that we can use to worship Him. What are you passionate about?
At the dinner table this week: Take turns saying what you are gifted at. If you need help thinking of something, have someone else point out a quality or skill they see in you. What are some ways you can use your talents to worship God this week? Read Psalm 86:9-10.
Our God is so big and so creative that He gave us countless ways to bring Him honor. Scripture says that ALL will worship God. He is great and His works are wonderful! When it comes to worshipping Jesus, it involves everything we do. It's how we express our thankfulness and love for Him in every day circumstances. We can worship Him wherever we are because He is everywhere. We also have reason to worship Him because He first loved us (1 John 4:19). Not only can we worship at church, but we can bring honor to Him throughout the week by welcoming a new family into our neighborhood, choosing to not argue or complain over a decision, or telling our mom or dad thank you for providing our dinner. The way we live reflects how we choose to worship God.
Think through some ways your family can worship God together this week and put them into practice.
