Hello.
Worship...
...was passionate tonight at Reality. God's presence was BIG! As I looked about the room from the stage, I noticed hands and voices raised to God like I haven't seen in Reality in a while. It was cool. And it is cool....
Do you ever just know that God is near. Or that He's moving around, stirring things up that have been settled for far too long? God is taking over my peers and making them into His worshippers. How awesome--to be called God's, to belong to God.
I belong to God because He made me.
I belong to God because He bought me with His own blood.
I belong to God because He has a home for me in the future.
I belong to God because He has made me His worshipper. I make God smile. He sees me and Reality with our hands raised and our hearts open, and He smiles.
You know, smiles are great. When someone smiles at me, no matter what my day has looked like or what sort of mood I'm in, I get happy and I feel loved.
That's only if another person smiles at me. Think about God! When He smiles at us, how loved and how joyous we should be.
So just think--when we worship and acknowledge God's glory and His power, He smiles. And smiles, for some reason, make people happier.
Thus, us worshipping = God smiling = us happier people. Sounds like a good deal to me.

that's a good one teee-yummm! haha
i was just sitting in my room, home by myself worshipping Him this morning and it was like pastor patrick said last night. one of the most amazing times you can ever hope to have here on this earth.
i love belonging to God, and I love being on this journey towards our eternal homes with you, friend.
I thought worship in Reality was one of the best we've had in a while..smiling trully does make people happier. After P.Steve told us to smile as we sang, our whole sound changed as a team and we sounded better. It does make me happier when I worship..something about worshiping our creator just puts me in an ecstatic mood. Even if I'm worn out and tired, like I was after band camp yesterday, I get a new spurt of energy when I am in His presence
It is an amazing thing to know that we belong to God. I love every moment I walk with Him...
hey! i added a new post, and i forgot how you add people to your page so you need to help me soon, kay? =]
I am little behind on my reading, so I'm just now reading your latest post...and what wonderful timing! Thanks for making me smile!
new post, new post. =]
Agreed! We need to have a night once a week where some students get together and just talk about what's going on at school and get advice from each other and especially in the Word to help us make it thru the weeks...or..school days. haha =]
I think you and Steph have an extremely good idea there..it would be really helpful to everyone..good way to reach out to students at our schools and develop in our Christian maturity.
