True worship is first initiated by God. The Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit dance in syncretic unity, a beauty beyond description. This Holy Dance radiates and illuminates the universe like a solar flare into the whole being on His image bearers. This immeasurable and majestic love dispensed from the dance to His creation in unquenchable fashion is never ending as the Holy is always pursuing. Next comes our expression of such an awesome display and intimate encounter given out of an abundance of grace reveals the condition of the soul. Worship is our response to what already IS, a complete surrender to and response of His presence, His unfathomable adoration for us. This response is determined by our capacity to embrace, embody and reflect back to Him this glorious presence. Idolatry in its many facets lessens our capacity to receive and reflect what is constantly being expressed to us. Our lives are like an instrument of the soul that plays music in a grand symphony that enhances the Holy Dance. My thoughts, words and actions are the musical notes that my life plays. The more immersed in and fill with Him the sweeter the musical offering and the more pleasurable the Dance. As this Dance continues in harmonious precision the more His majestic presence is revealed. It is His being and my spirit, melody and harmony fused together in a glorious crescendo that never ends, but continues to build as do His mercies every morning.
Lord may my life be a sweet sound, beautiful music for your Holy Dance. I ask for more capacity in my life to receive your awesome presence that I may reflect in a harmonious manner Your glory that is due to your name. Help me to worship you in spirit and in truth, a living sacrifice, one that is pleasing to you in every way.
Amen
