God desires that our
relationship with Him isn’t lived out of a sense of duty as much as a sense of
devotion. In other words, God longs for us to long for Him. In the beauty of
His presence, we can’t help but find our affections set on God, our hearts
captivated by His love. Caught up in the delight of God, powerful feelings of
gratitude swell within us and our natural response is worship -- words of
thanks that roll off the tongue, songs of adoration that spring from the heart,
or some other form of praise. When we give back to God, the One who has gifted
us with all good things, we reflect His beauty.
