How can I remind people that worship does not just happen on Sunday Morning with 3 songs and a sermon. but all week long?
I asked this question on my facebook page and got the following responses.
“well do would they consider someone a best friend if they only called them for 20 minutes every Sunday?”
“When I spend some time out in God’s beautiful creation, and most particularly when I then sing I am reminded of how worthy of worship my Lord is.”
“Amen and Amen!!”
“Honestly, worship at church should be longer than 3 songs too if you ask me!!! I bust out into song many times thruout the day in worship to God… I think it’s a heart thing. People who really “get” worship, understand that it’s more than a couple of songs on Sunday.”
“This may step on some toes…I would be happy if we just sang praise all morning!”
Then I asked this… to go the other way.. what would happen if you had a worship service where you didn’t sing at all?
“…It would be a worship service that you didin’t sing at all.”
“Hum… interesting turn around… it’d be AWESOME!!!!”
“It would Not be worship for me without singing. So much so that we changed churches when chior practice night changed to one where we could not participate. I can study, I can learn from a sermon, I can pray, but for me without music internal minimun external preferably it is not worship.”
So what do you say?

Worship is how you live your life seven days a week, worship is a proactive act taken you. Talk is cheap; action will always speak louder, and truer than words. Worship is the dash between the dates on your headstone, the dates on either end are insignificant, it is only the dash that matters…will your dash reflect a life worship lived…or just wasted time?
