I Will Be Waiting For You! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798385065349)

What is worship? Typically, we hear that worship can be done through singing, dancing, art or playing a musical instrument. We can read in the Bible that God wants us to make a joyful noise. We can also read about making a shout, lifting our hands or even clapping in worship. Some people even like to use a tambourine or a lyre when they worship. This story is an attempt to show that worship is deeper than singing a song or doing a dance. Worship is about connecting, it's about our action of lifting up honor. It's about devotion. It's about love and priorities. Worship can be done in many ways, using different actions. Worship can be lifted up through the act of tithing, making an offering, creating a piece of art, singing, dancing, giving a gift or serving one another. One thing is for sure, worship is a special time to devote our talents, energy, time or our resources to exalt and remember, that which is, more important than ourselves. Worship flows out of the heart. The Bible states that true worshipers, worship in spirit and in truth. This is why it can be so easy to misdirect our worship away from the One who deserves it. It is because, what we spend our time, talents, energy and resources on captivates our heart and our attention. We may even say that we love doing a particular thing. Worship is often offered up to, something or someone, we prioritize over all else. The Bible tells us that God not only deserves our worship but He wants our worship. He created us for relationship with Him and He gets jealous when we worship anything else more than Him. Our act of worship is seen by the receiver and felt by the giver as honor, sacrifice, respect and devotion. In this story, some well meaning people got caught up in the act of worship and they miss the One they came to worship. The Bible tells us that God inhabits the praise of His people. That means, He is present when we praise Him. If you want God to draw near, praise Him, worship Him. The two children in our story had the opportunity to do just that. They met the Lord.
