"Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God almighty who was, and is, and is to come. With all creation I sing praise to the King of Kings. You are my everything and I will adore you."

As the words of Isaiah 6 are reflected in the song above and as the song proceeds in exalting God almighty and leading the singer into an area of vertical worship perse..... a sense of purpose fills in. The authors choice of words in the creation of this song encompass the entirety of man's purpose in life. Saying that the ENTIRETY of man's purpose in life are reflected in these words seems a bit risky, right? Nope. It's all there. Whoever can sing this song with a genuine heart and live it...has it all together. God is the definition of holy. God is worthy of all our praise and adoration. We must adore and worship God. That's really all there is to it. Infatuation with the King of the universe. Not to say that other things don't play out as a result, because they do, but this is the essence of it all.

It is beautiful to see how this plays out. The diversity of the body of Christ is so huge and the means by which God's children worship and adore is simply beautiful. Song, art, writing, living, preaching, many more, but all worship. All as equally glorifying.

This is really all that matters. Other things we may think are important and deserve attention and fuss really aren't. Nothing is as big of a deal as we make it. Worship is what's truly important. Are we worshipping? Are we leading others to worship and adore? Hmm?
