Bob Kauflin on Worship

A few posts ago (I'm not sure if that's a real term or not) I posted a quote from the book Let the Nations Be Glad! (Which you should read if you haven't yet because it's one of the best books written in the last hundred years) that was a bit of a paradox. The basic idea of the quote (as well as the entire book) is to argue that missions is an important part of the Christian walk because it isn't an end in and of itself. You could probably read the quote more quickly than the summery I just gave but I want I don't want to leave that thought unfinished. So now I want to share some important thoughts from Bob Kauflin on Worship itself.

"How could anyone ever think worshiping God is boring? There's no limit to his holiness, glory, and sovereignty, and no end to his riches, wisdom, and righteousness. All his attributes exist together in perfect harmony, perfect balance, perfect cooperation, with no contradiction, no confusion, and no diminishing of their glory forever. He is the source of everything good and beautiful. No wonder Paul breaks into worship as he describes God's greatness: 'Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways!' (Romans 11:33)" (Worship Matters, 64)

Now worship Him with your lives as well as your voices!
