Heart of Worship...

If you've gone to church at all in your life you're probably familiar with the old song "Heart of Worship"
"I'm coming back to the heart of worship,
where its all about You, its all about You Jesus.
I'm sorry Lord for the thing I've made it,
when its all about You...all about You, Jesus."

We hear it start playing and we begin to go through the motions singing along with it but not really listening or letting it sink in...after all, its an OLD song right! :)

Even so this song has been in my head all day today and its made me sit and think about what I'm actually saying.
"I'm coming back to the heart of worship...where its ALL ABOUT YOU, all about You Jesus"

When is the last time it was truly all about Him? When is the last time we sat down to do our study time or turned on some worship music to really focus on Him and we weren't interrupted by our phones, kids, laundry, spouses, life in general?!? :)

This song brings me back to my core which says, nothing else matters BUT Him! If I don't have Him as my center and my focus then everything else will consume me in my day to day life, everything else will become bigger and bigger and more and more unmanageable. He HAS to come first!

I love my mornings. Don't get me wrong I'm not a huge fan of mornings themselves, but I do love MY mornings. I get up about 7, the sun is coming up and the house is quiet. Work hasn't started yet, the phone hasn't started ringing yet and no one is wanting, needing or expecting anything from me. I make my breakfast, sit at my kitchen table, dig into my Bible, spend time in prayer and writing in my journal. Its my time with Him and I value it. I'm protective of it, I don't like anything to interfere with it.

It makes me think that's how God is with us. He values us, He's protective of us and He doesn't want anything messing with us or interfering with us. What a God we have the honor of serving! He loves us that much! He loves us so much that just as I don't like anything interfering with my time with Him, He doesn't like anything interfering with His time with me!

God deserves our best every single day. Like the song says "I'm sorry Lord for the thing I've made it, when its all about you" Its not about us. Its about Him. Lets show Him that everyday. :)
