Quote by David Jeremiah
“WORSHIP IS NOT ABOUT US—IT’S ABOUT HIM First, worship is not about us; it’s about Him. Do you really believe that? Perhaps we say, “Yes, I do believe that.” But what, then, happens when the worship leader announces a hymn that’s new to you or a song you don’t like? What happens when some element of Sunday’s worship service isn’t exactly to your preference? I want to tell you humbly and sincerely that if we focus more on the Object of our worship, we’ll be less agitated by the style of worship.”
