Worship sucks when you dunt want to

I used to dread singing praise and worship and couldnt understand for the life of me why people in Church kept on repeating chorus after chorus after chorus in a seemingly infinite loop, as i Catholic at that time, all i wanted to do was sing the song, move on to the next segment so i could get out as fast as i possibly could and then get on with my life (You could say i was a Sunday Christian)

But as i slowly matured in Christ, i actually found out why Christians love singing their songs endlessly.And the answer lies in The Presence of God

Anticlimactic? For some reason it was so simple, so plain yet I of all people had my spiritual eyes blinded.

King David loved to worship and did it in a very foolish yet child like way. He once wrote 'Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked."
I found out that when we sing, its not so much of singing the songs for the sake of singing the songs but to enjoy BEING IN HIS PRESENCE. Im not saying that worship = singing songs but rather when we intentionally set aside time to be in his presence, we arrive at the answer. That all you wanna do is be in his presence... A place where peace comes upon you like you have never known and for just that point in time, no worries and cares in the world can overcome you, a place where we connect with God and he to us.

If you have never enjoyed praise and worship, it could very well be a sign that we probably do not enjoy being in his presence at all... maybe we just think its just a farce and that its silly to do all the things mainstream christians do, but as i see it, its just between you and God, no one else.. Im not impressing the person next to me with how well I sing cos God knows he gave me an average voice that doesnt stand out, I sing cos he deserves it and that there is no other place i'd rather be than in his presence.

I came along a song lately, super short song, yet in that it perfectly described my feelings toward worship.

Hope you enjoy it and if you have never liked to worship like i did last time. I challenge you to delve so much deeper to find this joy when you sing to the Lord of Lords =)
