I wrote in a previous post (post #6) how worship, our personal and individual worship centered on Him, must become a vital and essential part of our daily lives if we wish to go deep with God.  After reading my most recent post (post #7) that discussed practicing the presence of God as we go about our daily lives, do you see the connection between that and worship?  As you learn to practice......

For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.             Acts 17:28
