Worship Past Sunday Mornings

There is more to worship than the music on Sunday mornings.

If you go to church, you automatically know what worship means, and you probably associate it with music. It is commonly known as the singing portion of a church service. Most churches have a portion of their service dedicated to praise and worship, which involve singing songs where the lyrics are about praising the Lord.

Worship is honoring someone to the highest regard and having absolute adoration. With this, worship is so much more than singing songs about Jesus on Sunday Mornings. Although I love worshiping God through music, but worship means so much more than just singing. There have been some amazing encounters with God during worship. I have seen so many lives changed and people getting healed. Even so, you do not need music to worship the Lord.

True worship is a life that honors him. We worship on Sunday at church, but we truly connect with God when we can worship God with our lives in addition to our Sunday morning worship. John Piper once said that true worship is valuing and treasuring God above all things. When we put God first, we worship Him.

I personally love the phrase "Worship God with our life." This is something that resonates with me. Worship on Sunday mornings are my absolute favorite thing, but if I don't live my life for Him every day, then my worship may not be genuine. I have to worship God with my words and actions. I worship Him if I am a light to this dark world.

We must worship Him every day in everything we do, and we must live a life that reflects Him.

"Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise—the fruit of lips that openly profess his name.And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased." Hebrews 13:15-16

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
