    1. Isn’t it the very best way to spend a day Martha? Blessings to you too!

  3. Hi Deb! ( I\’m pretty sure the last quote is St. Augustine)I always like posts on the subject of \’worship\’. It\’s a confusing word to me. I\’m not always sure I understand what it means. Thank you for all the quotes and thoughts about it. I do like the thought of coming before God on my knees (in intention…I can\’t kneel anymore!) and being quiet. Inviting Him in. To me, that\’s worship.Tuesday Blessings,Ceil

    1. I agree Ceil. Pressing in. For me the best idea of true worship is remembering who I am in humility as I come before Him . . . by Creator, Redeemer, and Comforter. Thanks for your encouragement! Loved your post today!

  4. This quote: “When I worship, I would rather my heart be without words than my words be without heart.” -Lamar Boschman hits home for me. God’s word promises that when we have no words, our groans will be sufficient. Thanks for sharing.
