Worship on earth can easily take the form of mind less activity or superficial entertainment. Many have come to believe that worship is only singing songs and clapping our hands. But true worship is focusing on Christ and living for Him day by day, in spirit and in truth. The center of true worship is the Lord. Even at our best, our worship on earth will always be imperfect, incomplete, and even superficial and boring at times. In Heaven, our worship will be transformed.
