God does not need our praise or even our worship. Rather, we need to praise and worship God. Praise and worship lift our hearts and minds beyond our tiny selves. They open us to the glory of God; infinite beauty, truth, power,goodness, tenderness, and love.

As we grow in our ability to focus on God, we simply overflow with the love of God for others.

This is not only the point of worship, this is the purpose of our lives.
