There is a great glimpse of worship found in the book of Isaiah Chapter 6 verses 1 – 8. The passage is an example of a conversation of worship where God is seen and then the worshipper responds.

In worship services today we use songs and scriptures to see a picture of God. When we look close at His attributes and then look to ourselves for comparison there really is none. Or the comparison is so far at opposite ends of the spectrum that it is hard to compare. That is exactly the response of the writer of Isaiah 6; he sees a vision of the Lord, Majestic and holy, and then cries out ‘woe is me.’

In the book Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis I found the following statement:

In God you come up against something which is in every respect immeasurably superior to yourself. Unless you know God as that – and, therefore, know yourself as nothing in comparison – you do not know God at all.

It is hard to imagine that God who is immeasurable invites us to be a part of His family.

It is hard to imagine that God, who is holy, invites us to stand in His presence and worship.

He made it so by a gift of love…His Son.
