This article challanged me to look at my own worship: LeadershipJournal.net - It's All About Who, Jesus?:
When we're not affirming God for how well we're nurtured, our songs often
congratulate ourselves on how well we respond to God's grace. Have you noticed
how much we sing about how loud or passionately we sing? We talk a lot about
what we're going to do usually in the singular: I will worship, I will praise
you, I will bow down, etc., etc. One beautiful and well-intentioned song even
tells us that God thinks of 'me above all.' As my professor friend says,
'Begging your pardon: the only person who thinks of Me above all is Me.
