It occurred to me today that there is a harmony to worship. Many cords vibrating at different speeds to create a symphony of praise. Like four part harmony in perfect pitch the voices praise the God who inhabits their praise. It is not a discordant sound that reaches the anthropomorphic ears of the great I AM but rather the serene sound of a heart attuned to the heart of God.
How I long for this depth of worship. Oh, to experience this magnitude of praise which is a melody conveying the majesty and mystery of God, our abba father. The simple, soulful sounds of a solitary soul, seeking the elusive note to that eternal song. Then having found that sympathetic vibration to join in the chorus singing as only those born of God are able to sing.
Do we see the song, supplication, supper, sacrifice and sermon all as individual rhythm's of the same song? Each voice unique, yet tuned by the Spirit to a single cord. A blending of sounds but each speaking the same message. The song, supplication, supper, sacrifice and sermon harmoniously blending into the Christological, crescendo of the Cross gently caressing the ears of God. This is the chorus of a grateful creation responding to its lover and creator.
The soulful rhythm's of worship.
Just some things to think about along the way.
