We can't just play any old music that comes into our heads, we can't just wing it and hope that it will work. We owe God better than that. We owe God the discipline, the mature and wise imagination, to recognize God's glory and reflect it. And worship in such a way that is yearning toward the day when the world will be full of the Glory of God as the waters cover the sea.


This is from an article from a post on Molly's blog. So often we just go through the motions without doing any preparation--without giving our best to what we are doing and when things don't go well we wonder why the "spirit didn't move".

There is an awesome picture of the tree of life made from turned in weapons that can be accessed through the Wharton's blog. I wonder if Mark had seen it.

Lord help us to seek more of you.

God, you are not only the Almighty, you are holy! Holy, Holy, Holy are you, the LORD God Almighty. May the whole earth be filled with your glory and may that glory be shown in what I do and say. Forgive me for my own sin and hypocrisy. Bless me with purity and holiness as I pledge my life to your glory. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
