"Worship ...
a reminder that God is at the heart of everything that we do and are.
He is the one for whom and by whom we exist: he is our Creator, our Redeemer, and our Sustainer. The Lord is our Rock and our Refuge, our Shepherd and our Savior. ...
In worship we turn our hearts away from ourselves and our preoccupations and toward our true center, God himself, experiencing and enjoying his presence in our midst.
That worship, the enjoyment of who God is and his favor toward us in Christ, is to be what we seek above all things."
( Iain M. Duguid, " NUMBERS: GOD'S PRESENCE in the WILDERNESS")
