After listening to my daily podcast devotional on my drive this morning, I switched over to a little David Crowder. On their album, Illuminate, there is a song titled Only You. As I listened to the words of that song, I was reminded of the simplicity of worship.
It occurred to me that we have done it again! We have done a great job of taking something really simple and making it very complicated and even a point of contention in many churches.
The chorus of the song is this:
And I will worship You, Lord
Only You, Lord
And I will bow down before You
Only You Lord.
That’s it. Pretty simple. On Sunday morning, we have become so concerned about the sound we are looking for or if it sparks some memory of worshipful moments in our past that we have forgotten that the goal of worship is not about us. It is about bowing down to the one true God.
I wonder if we were to get back to the basics of worship if that would take care of a lot of our problems in most of our churches today.
Just wondering!

Good point, Brian. I was blessed and comforted by your ‘Simplicity of Worship’ blog. Programs are being presented to the church, taken off the internet. I pray that we would get back to the basics of worship.
We miss you!
