(w o r s h i p...)_ _ _

i love how steffany frizzell, a worship leader from bethel church in california, defines worship...she says...

“Worship is something you do everyday from the minute you wake up ‘til you go to sleep at night. It’s something that you choose… it’s just this choice to be selfless instead of selfish. It’s a laying down of your life and your affection and your love. It’s saying, ‘I’m going to live for You, and I’m going to die for You and, it’s all for You. Because You already…’ He paid everything for me to be close to Him. He paid the ultimate sacrifice so that there would be no space between us. And so when I think about worship I think about filling in all the space because He, He went as far as He could to come to me. He’s done everything He could to get to me. And if there’s any space it’s because I created that space. It’s because I gave somebody that place or some situation or something that place. And so in worship, like that’s a constant choice to remove the space and say, ‘Come and fill in this space so there’snothing between us. And this is what I have to give You.’ And it’s, it’s a big deal to Him but it doesn’t feel that big to us. Like I’m always saying, ‘This feels so small to me. I don’t feel like my life, with my whole life I could pay You back, but I’ll try. And here it is.


He gave everything for me, so I should give everything for Him...worship is a laying down of my life...giving myself to him in every area of my life.
