For the past 6 weeks we have been studying the Experiencing God (youth edition) bible study at my church. Each chapter of this bible study is divided up into sections (0r days) and each section is on a different subject that revolves around seven key truths.
One of the themes for week 4 was based on worship. The workbook asked its' readers to spend some time worshiping God. Of course for me this was my favorite part about the whole bible study. I love to worship my Saviour!
So for almost an hour, I just sat in my room, played my guitar, and sang praises to my heavenly Father. I sang:
" I love You, Lord, and I lift my voice to worship You. Oh my soul, rejoice. Take joy my King in what You hear. May It be a sweet, sweet sound in Your ear."
Also, I sang songs like "How Great Is Our God", "How Great Thou Art", "Amazing Grace-My Chains Are Gone", and "God of Wonders."
The book then asked me to summarize what I thought about that time of worship. This is what I wrote:
"I long to love my God with ALL my heart and I long to show God that love in my worship time. He is worthy of all my praise, and I want Him to know that in my worship time.
Worship for me is the time that I feel like I'm truly in the presence of God. I know that God is always with me, but worship just reminds me of His presence."
I really enjoy these times of worship when I can praise my Savior and Lord, not just for what He has done for me, but also for who He is.

That's a pretty mature way to look at worship. Oh, that we would all long to show our love for our Savior like that! Keep up your time with Him. I wish I had when I was younger....I missed so much.
