Call.

I was reading through the book of Romans last week and I read something that I have probably read a hundred times before but this time when I read it I saw it as a call to worship.

Romans 11:33-36; Have you ever come on anything quite like this extravagant generosity of God, this deep, deep wisdom? It’s way over our heads. We’ll never figure it out.

Is there anyone around who can explain God? Anyone smart enough to tell Him what to do? Anyone who has done Him such a huge favor that God has to ask His advice?

Everything comes from Him; Everything happens through Him; Everything ends up in Him. Always glory! Always praise! Yes. Yes. Yes.

I was leading worship this past weekend and I had to share that as we started the worship service. When I read things like this I’m [again] reminded of God’s sovereignty and power and in this place, there seems to be no other response than to simply worship. These verses just draw me to worship God. He holds our world in His hands. Everything is thru Him and because of Him. He is it. What draws me to worship is the fact that the Creator of this amazing universe has taken up residency within me [His choice] and He calls me His child, His friend, His daughter, His chosen. He chose me… I am His – not by chance, but by choice.

What could I say in response to this revelation? What could I possibly do? But to kneel down and just thank Him. He is worthy of my love, worship and obedience. What do I have that He hasn’t given to me anyways.?May you feel the call to worship also as we respond to our great God.
