Defining Worship

  The beat of the drums vibrate through our bodies. The music fills our ears, and the words speak directly to our hearts. The floor groans as the crowd jumps and dances. Hands are raised high in the air reaching for our King.

We Are Entering Pure Praise.

Our gathering is small despite the large number of fliers passed out. Only one or two friends stick out among a sea of blue Live Free shirts. But none of that matters. Not now.
    Our only objective is drawing nearer to our one true love, Jesus. We all understand that something big is going to happen. We can feel it deep inside. And we begin to open our hearts with prayer. Before long, it is our turn to sing.
    I stand in front of the small crowd, but all I can see is Jesus. My strength, my love, my reason for singing. This is all for Him.
    The band begins. :] The music fills the room. It is evident that the Master Creator is here. And then it happens. God moves the room. Row by row, pew by pew. Tears fell, praises are shouted.
    I then understood God’s purpose for our gathering. We are broken. We need His love to restore our souls. We are chained down by our addictions. We need to be set free.

We Are Learning Sweet Surrender.

    Jesus touches the entire place. He writes love on our hearts. He tells us that we are his. Addictions and prisons are being called out. We claim our prison in our own minds. Sex, drugs, alcohol, self-harm, pain, are some of these addictions that we face.

We Are Breaking Free!

We praise. We sing. We worship. We look crazy as we spin around the room, but none of that matters anymore. We are in a new state of being. Not in heaven, but not quite on earth either. We are caught somewhere in the middle. What you are witnessing is only the outcome of our most intimate part of our relationship with our God.

You Are Witnessing True Love & Total Adoration.

Webster’s Dictionary defines worship as:
        Intense love or admiration.


    But worship goes so much beyond that. Worship for me is like a complete surrender to the God I serve. It’s just me and Jesus alone together in complete and total bliss. I can be the only person in a crowded room. It becomes that serious for me. It is one of the most intimate parts of my relationship with the Father, the Master Designer, the Ultimate Author, and whatever happens during this love fest with Jesus just happens.
    For me, worship is like having an out of body experience. It's like leaving your sin-filled body behind for a chance to worship with Jesus in the spirit. And it is well worth it, even if it is only for these moments. When I worship, I never want to leave. I never want to stop, because its kind of like a high that I receive just for singing with Jesus.
    I will never be too ashamed to sing, to raise my hands, or jump. Because you had better believe that if God tells me to jump. You won’t catch me saying how high. You will just see my feet in the air. Plus, won’t we all be singing, dancing, praising, running, jumping, and shouting with all that is in our being, because when you are with God, nothing else matters. Because you were made to love and be loved by the most amazing being in existence. Our group just wants a head start on eternal praise.

We Have Reached PURE WORSHIP.
