Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.
John 4:23-24

Worship invades our soul with the presence of God. Everyone does not respond to the presence of God in the same way. Some tremble and fall on their face before Him; others may cry, some are overjoyed, many cannot refrain from singing, shouting, and dancing, while some may sit in silence. True worship is birthed in our hearts. It is not important how we respond to His presence, but that we do respond. It is so easy for us to set boundaries for others and ourselves concerning worship. We worry about our self-image and what others will think. When we are engaged in true worship of the Father our minds, hearts and souls are turned toward heaven, nothing else compares or takes precedence. It is a time for us to be true and honest before God and to ourselves. What sweet communion we share with our Lord. It is far more than a casual experience or a weekly ritual, and it exceeds beyond all else, to the deepest valleys of our souls.

Prayer

Lord you are Holy. We worship you in spirit and in truth. Help us to put aside the distractions and opinions of others, as we come before you just as we are. You are our focus; we stand in awe at the works of your hands. You are good Lord; there is none that compares to you. We thank you for allowing us to come into your presence, and for satisfying our thirsty souls. Amen.
