Undignification: July 8, 2009

"I will dance, I will sing to be mad for my King. Nothing, Lord, is hindering this passion in my soul. And I will become even more undignified than this. Some may say it's foolishness. But I will become even more undignified than this. Leave my pride by my side. It's all for you my Lord!"

Ah, how I love that song. It's simply amazing, convicting, and challenging. How I wish I was more like that person. More on fire to become undignified. More free in the way I express my love for my Savior. Why in the world do I hold back? It doesn't make sense to let this world restrain my love for God. It's crazy to put looking "normal" to them before what I am actually here for. Leave my pride by my side, right? Who cares what they think? I am crazy in love with my God. And I shouldn't be ashamed to show it. I should be burning up inside, crazy passionate about exploding with love for my God. I think our nation is desensitized to worship and hardcore feelings anad passion and expression of oneself. What is worship? It's not a genre of music. It's a verb. It's a character of the heart. It's a devotion. And it's a lifestyle. Worship is so much more than singing songs on Sunday morning. Worship should be undignifying in the eyes of this world. It should be crazy. They should be seriously wondering what has got me on fire like this. I want to leave my pride by my side. Not worry or care what others think of me. I am not here so that I can fit in and conform. I am here to give glory to my God. Through worship. Through my actions, attitudes, words, and thoughts. All for God. This life is so utterly temporary. Like a vapor. And the things of this world are meaningless. Like chasing after the wind. I want to live every moment of everyday in constant worship, allowing myself to become undignified and letting God break down walls and barriers. It's all for you, my Lord!
