Worship

I am starting to understand worship and it's purpose and it's importance in my life.
I understand that it's a GIFT from God. Being able to worship Him...especially since we are undeserving is the most amazing thing. To be able to do something so beautiful and true and authentic as nasty, dirty, unworthy humans is absolutely INCREDIBLE.

I remember coming home from Mexico, sitting on the bus, and listening to "Beautiful" by Shawn McDonald and just crying. Just realzing those lyrics and making them so absolutely real to me.

As I look into the stars
Pondering how far away they are
How you hold them in your hands
And still you know this man
You know my inner most being, Lord
Even better than I know, than I know myself
What a beautiful God
What a beautiful God
What am I that I might be called your child?
What am I, What am I?
That you might know me, my King!
What am I, What am I, What am I?
As I look off into the distance
Watching the sun roll on by
Beautiful colors all around me, Lord
Painted all over the sky
The same hands that created all of this
They created you and I
What a beautiful God
What a beautiful God
What am I that I might be called your child?
What am I? What am I?
That you might know me, my King!
What am I, what am I, What am I?
That you might die that I might live!
What am I, what am I, what am I?

Just...worship God. Because He is so beautiful and we are so undeserving.
Be beautiful because of Him.

Peace
