Worship: Basic Human Wiring

"We reflect God's glory by our worship of him, which means to hold him as the object of our deepest desires and as worthy of our imitation. Worship is not just singing songs in church; it's how we live our lives every moment of every day–every thought, word, deed, feeling and desire. You worship what you live for, whatever is most worthy of your attention and devotion. It is what drives you at the core, and it flows from the essence of who you are.

You can't turn it off. It's your basic human wiring. To not worship is not to live. It's like a garden hose stuck on full blast. You can aim it at the grass, the car, or the shrubs, but you cannot stop its flow."

Mike Wilkerson, Redemption, p29
