I’m just going to rant it up in here because of two reasons, I’m really angry at people and the things they do, and also because I don’t understand why or how people can react at a simple question.
So first. During worship this morning, I was singing “Til I See You” by Hillsong Church and it was at the part where we sing “You alone are God of all!” and the drum part generally is really awesome and intense, and I look down to the first row of people and there’s a guy sitting there, not really doing much until that part. Then he all of a sudden starts jammin’ out in his chair and air-drumming to the song and just having a good time. I was like “Yeah! Get it bro!” Then a girl sitting in the row behind him, taps him on the shoulder and looks at him like, “What are you doing? Stop that.” And he stopped and just sat back in the chair. I was like, “HELL NO!!!” Freakin’ heck! He can worship ANY WAY THAT HE WANTS!!! It is NOT your place to tell him how to worship Jesus! We are meant to get crazy, meant to sing out of tune and off pitch! We are meant to WORSHIP. Worship means to proclaim God’s glory, shout His praises, be grateful for what He has done for us, for how He has SAVED us and how He loves us! We are meant to be loud, meant to be crazy, meant to be obnoxious with our worship. That’s just not an option. God calls us to tear our robes and weep before Him! To kneel before His throne and live in His presence! Freakin’ heck. WE ARE NOT MEANT TO BE STIFLED. I hope I’m making that perfectly clear! Make a JOYFUL NOISE unto Him!
Gosh…
Okay, well anyway. Now that I got that off my chest, so yeah :) Thanks for reading.
