True Worship

From Gerald Wilson,

"I believe firmly that true worship incorporates acknowledging and repenting of sin. Only then do we realize how totally dependent on God and his gracious mercy we really are" (Psalms: Volume 1, NIVAC, 197).

I find this so refreshing and apropos to my life. I concur with Wilson in that worship engages both the heart and the soul which leads to self-examination which then results in repentance and restoration. Praise God for conviction that He brings through the Holy Spirit who dwells within us (cf. Rom 8:9).

May we never shun repentance but rather embrace it in order to experience the mercy of God all the more and the grace of God to the fullest.
