Comments on: Worship is a Response http://pastorjon.com/v3/2009/07/27/worship-is-a-response/ My thoughts on life, family, & ministry.

For example, if you go to the planetarium in Chicago, there is an exhibit about a song that the sun sings. The sun continueously sings a high pitched song, it harmonizes with the song that the stars are singing and the moon has it's own song that is more like the bass believe it or not. It's absolutly astounding, it will blow your mind. Then if you read abut Einstein's string theory, all matter is made up of tiny vibrating strings smaller than an atom. Take that to the infinate measure, what if we are in continous song. What if all of creation can be heard like music to Daddy G_d all the time? What if every breath we breath contributes to an ultimate song composed through us, his instruments/musicians combined? At one point the bible talks about our hearts being far from G_d and our worship being noise. What if that's not just when we're singing or playing instruments? What if it's when we are doing laundry or driving to work? What if it's when we make a decision to do what G_d has told us even though it's inconvienant? What if, like Lucifer, G_d created in us music that never stops? Take this even farther. What if music has the power to create? What are we creating when we are disobedient? How about prideful? What are we creating when we are obedient? How about humble? We already know it has the power to change the atmosphere. What if ALL we are is music?

I'll look forward to hearing more about the responses. Thanks Jon….I have really enjoyed these words of wisdom on worship….I’m much afraid that many of us don’t prepare for true worship as we should.
