Some people have a hard time understanding that they are worshipers. They don't express worship outwardly like many others...and they may not have intense feelings of passion like some of us.
If this describes you - don't focus on your feelings or expressions of worship - just focus on being in His presence - through the Word and in prayer. Practice BEING with Him in a very simple yet deliberate way.
Apart from all the obvious times when we worship - let me say this...because you have given Him your life:
You worship when you smile at Him
You worship when you smile at strangers
You worship when you serve the unlovely and unholy
You worship when you enjoy what He has made
You worship when you are thankful for all He does
You worship when you obey Him
You worship when you take time to love a child
You worship when you love the old and infirm
You worship when you give Him your time
You worship when you wash the feet of the broken
You worship when you are faithful even when it is difficult
You worship when you seek to understand others
You worship when you wait, and linger in His presence
You worship when you do as Jesus did
You worship when you whisper His name
You worship when you make those thousands of small and large decisions each day that show He is the center of your life and worldview. He is the reason you do what you do. He is the Lord and Champion of your life - this is your reasonable worship (Romans 12:1)
