Worship
The rhythm of worship invites us into a transformative encounter with awe—the experience of being in the presence of something vast, transcendent, and beyond ourselves. Drawing from stories like a veteran finding healing in nature and Psalm 95’s call to "worship and bow down," we learn that awe restores perspective, connects us to creation, and reminds us of our sacred place within God’s grandeur. Worship isn’t about feeling small but recognizing we are part of something incomprehensibly big and meaningful.
The Psalms guide us to respond reflexively to awe, offering humility and gratitude as we engage with God’s glory in creation, art, community, and even our own lives. Whether gazing at stars, walking among trees, or encountering love in each other, worship invites us to pause, say thanks, and glimpse the divine in all things. As Mary Oliver and the psalmist remind us, we are crowned with glory and called to live with light, reflecting God’s presence wherever we go. Worship, then, becomes not just a practice but a rhythm that renews us and reveals God’s love—here, everywhere, and in each other.
