So I was sitting in church this morning, during worship and I noticed in the aisle, a special needs girl who I later found out was the same age as me, worshiping God with everything that she had. She wasn't paying attention to whether other people were watching her or not. She was just focused on God and nothing else. Then I looked around the rest of the church, most of them perfectly healthy people, some with their hands raised, some clapping in worship, some clapping because everyone else was doing it. But nobody seemed to have the passion that this one girl had....and even though she's worse off than most of us....she was praising God because she was alive and nothing else...we have so much to praise God for, but we tend to just sit there and worry about what other people think. Why can't we just praise God with everything we have just like that girl was? We're so concerned about drawing attention to ourselves...they're not gonna be there on judgment day....
