Worship puts you in your place

Adoration sounds like something ancient, but it is one of the healthiest things there is: recognizing that there is Someone greater than you, and that you are not the center of the universe. It is the posture of one who knows they are a creature before their Creator. That, far from humiliating you, sets you free. When you adore God, the little idols that enslave you lose their rule over you: what people will say and your own ego. Putting God in his place puts everything else in its place as well. Nothing complicated is needed: a few minutes of silence recognizing his greatness, a "My God, You are God and I am not." Adoring reorders you within and gives a peace that self-sufficiency never provides.
