Finding the joy of being in God’s presence, and knowing that God finds joy in us, is one of many realities of worship. This is the ‘offering’ that Apostle Paul describes in Romans 12. As we offer our selves, our everyday dealings in life, to God, to sit at his feet, listening to the spirit direct us in life’s details, we can bring delight to our heavenly father, and we can share the delight. Keeping God’s personal instruction in mind, literally in mind, allows us to be re-formed in our thinking. Our thinking is so programmed by our culture-of-origin, from all the unwritten rules of conduct that we gathered in our first few formative years, that a life-time of listening at the feet of our heavenly father is necessary to re-program us for kingdom of God living. What a joyful offering of worship!
