{a poem}
sensationally symphonic soundheavenly honing in on honoring Him
radically revolving in real revelations
intrinsically inspiring a new, intricate ideology
powerfully presenting a passionate plea for praise
wondrously washing in a new a new wave of awe

but it isn't a sound
no, it isn't a sound--kind of like
love isn't a feeling
it's a l i f e s t y l e
it's a w a y o f l i f e
it's a "d o - i t - a n y w a y" when you really don't want to MOMENT
it's a "d o n 't - d o - i t" when you really want to CHOICE

my husband recently told me "you bring so much worship into my life"
i'm sorry?
#BestComplimentEver
#HubbyWinningPoints
and i got to thinking about just why that could be so?
is it because i loooove worship music, blasting it in our apartment everyday?
is it because in my spare time i attempt to write worship songs?
is it because i'm that person with arms flailing // *hott mess* crying most sunday's during service?
is it because i desire to be in full-time ministry one day?
no.
no. no.
it's not "because of"
ANYTHING i did. period. or could EVER do!
i'm a fallible, #NumberOneSinner over here
in fact, i don't deserve to have that "ability" or "influence" on someone

it reminds me of a verse that Paul said so perfectly, that we can stand accept as universal truth for us all. Speak this to yourself just as he declared:
"I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength, that he considered me trustworthy, appointing me to his service. Even though I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent man, I was shown mercy because I acted in ignorance and unbelief. The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst. But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience as an example for those who would believe in him and receive eternal life. Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen."
1 Timothy 1
this is the power we all have! through Christ, we are more than W O R T H Y to W O R S H I P
He is the w a y of w o r s h i p
We are his w o r k m a n s h i p
Him w o r k i n g in us

perfect worship
