"Praise is who I am, I will praise Him while I can...." - William Murphy Shekinah Glory
After being beaten and thrown into prison, all Paul and Silas could do was worship God. And boy was God 'moved'. Amen!
Life does get burdensome at times, and often brings pain and bruises. But don't let what's wrong with you keep you from worshiping what's right with God. So often in our "all about me" way of thinking we forget what worship is all about. Worship is forgetting about what's wrong with you, what's wrong with the world around you, and remembering what is right with God. It's like hitting the refresh key on your computer screen. Worship brings focus where it should be, on God. It brings restoration to the spirit, gives vitality to the heart, renewal to our mind, and strength and encouragement to our very being; reminding us that we are not facing this thing called life alone - God is beside us. Mark Batterson says "worship not only changes the spiritual atmosphere, it RECHARGES those involved." Why, because God is there, and where God is it's never plain and ordinary. God is ready to be moved and move today!
Until tomorrow....
Pastor Botts
"I will bless the Lord at all times.....his praise shall continually be on my lips." - Psalm 34;1
