“Worship is our response to the overtures of love from the heart of the Father.”
Richard J. Foster
God loves us dearly! Knowing that allows us to enter into his presence with the confidence that he loves us and wants to hear from us. In fact, our love for God stems from him loving us. As 1 John 4: 19 says, “
We love because he first loved us.” God is the initiator in this relationship. That should give us comfort as we approach him in praise and prayer.
I hope that this month of “movements of worship” has stretched and enriched your spiritual lives. This series is not meant to simply fill a month of Sundays so we can then move on to what is next. This month is meant to ground us in worship and stay with us through the rest of the year and beyond.
So, how has this month impacted you? What insights have you gained? Is there any new movement of worship you intend to continue to incorporate into your regular movements of worship to draw you upward toward the Father and outward toward others? I’d love to hear from you! Share below what you are learning.
