What is worship? The most popular answers to this question are that worship is singing and dancing and praising God. Is this a good answer, or is there more to it? Singing and dancing are ways to worship, but it is not what worship actually is. Yes, we praise God and that is our worship, but there is more to it. Worship is a RESPONSE We respond to who God is. We respond to what God has done. Most of all, we respond to what God is doing right now. Worship happens when we are in a day to day relationship with God.  In order to respond to something, something has to have happened. When you are with God day in and day out, and you are in a true relationship with Him each day, then you will automatically respond to God's goodness. Even when things are bad you will respond.  In short, we are called to a relationship with God, and worship is our RESPONSE to that relationship.

  1. Worship to me is that sweet communion with God when I can in abandon and joy enter into conversation with him.
