God is the source of life. He is personal and knowable. If you want to live life to the fullest, root your life in God! You will never regret this. We were all made to worship our Creator. We were all made to be in communion with our Maker. There is nothing better than catching a glimpse of the Lord. The ultimate experience for us is worshiping and praising the Lord. I don't think any of us can truly understand how awesome the Lord is in this life. The few prophets who caught a glimpse of Him were struck speechless. They had to bow down. Then they had to tell everyone about what they experienced. When this current age has run it's course, and a new heaven and earth are formed, people will still worship God. Worship is eternal.
Authentic worship is rooted in truth. It starts by knowing who the Lord is, what He is like, and what He has done. Worship then chooses to respond to the Lord. To follow, to obey, to love Him. Praise is remembering who the Lord is (His character) and what He has done, and celebrating that in our words, songs, poems, dance, and art.
Remember, your relationship with the Lord is priceless. The Lord will spare nothing to assure a close walk with him. Everything boils down to God's goodness and faith to trust Him. Nothing else matters.
Worship is a choice and a verb, not a feeling. You will often not feel like worshiping. That doesn't mean that you don't. Choosing to worship doesn't guarantee that you in you feel good, happy, content, or any positive emotion, though it will often reset your perspective which can lead to contentment.
