Worship is when you're aware that what you've been given is far greater than what you can give. Worship is the awareness that were it not for His touch, you'd still be hobbling and hurting, bitter and broken. Worship is the half-glazed expression on the parched face of a desert pilgrim as he discovers that the oasis is not a mirage.
Worship is the "Thank You" that refuses to be silenced.
We have tried to make a science out of worship. We can't do that. We can't do that any more than we can "sell love" or "negotiate peace."
Worship is a voluntary act of gratitude offered by the saved to the Savior, by the healed to the Healer, and by the delivered to the Deliverer. And if you and I can go days without feeling an urge to say "Thank You" to the One who saved, healed, and delivered us, then we'd do well to remember what He did.
