What does He delight in?

Hey,



My thoughts on the "why" or "for whom" of worship. . . .it's for us, in that we connect (as one of you put it) with G-d. It's our time to stand before Him and show Him how we feel about Him. But more, it's for Him. Hopefully as we spend time worshiping G-d--whatever that looks like--He is pleased. He receives our worship, our praise, our words, actions, dance, heart, thoughts, and we communicate with Him in that special intimate way that some (sadly) do not understand.



As a worship leader it's my privilege to usher G-d's children into His throne room and to encourage them to open up and have an intimate worship experience with the G-d Who created all.



My pastor often reminds us of the story of "Chariots of Fire", where the main character is talking about how it feels when he runs. He said something to the effect that "when I run, I sense G-d's pleasure". That's what / how I feel when I'm leading worship (or rather worshiping as the lead worshiper). That to me would be a great by-product of worshiping, sensing G-d's pleasure.



My Canadian 2cents worth.



Blessings!



Moe.
