I struggle with the “I” in worship. Does it happen to you too? Somehow my prayers, my thoughts, my worship…get focused more on me than on Him.
“Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.” Psalm 100:4
The focus and attention is all directed one way. What a good reminder for my soul as I approach worship and prayer. It starts and ends with Him. When He is the focus, I can’t help but be thankful. I can’t help but offer praise.
If you’re distracted or disappointed in your time with God. Start with thanking Him, not asking Him. Remind your heart of His stature and standing. He is the perfect King. The loving Savior who bends His ear to tend to your heart. What will you say?
