I Need To Worship Because Without It I Can Forget That I Have A Big God Beside Me And Live In Fear. I Need To Worship Because Without It I Can Forget His Calling And Begin To Live In A Spirit Of Self-preoccupation. I Need To Worship Because Without It I Lose A Sense Of Wonder And Gratitude And Plod Through Life With Blinders On. I Need Worship Because My Natural Tendency Is Toward Self-reliance And Stubborn Independence.
