Text in Video: To be a worshipper, you must open your eyes!! A worshiper is someone who notices how ingenious, creative, wise, kind, loving, and brilliant God is, and then continues on to tell Him how they feel about Him. You've got to notice the little things. And then you've got to get outside of yourself to tell Him about it. If you don't notice, you'll never be a worshipper. You'll only be religious. A true worshipper notices even the most minute details. Jesus could see the beauty in the little things. He could see that a farmer was like His Father, and that a seed was like the Word of God. He noticed the analogies and the pictures and the stories around Him, and then He spoke freely about those things to the people around Him. He marveled at His Father's creativity and could worship. You'll never be a worshipper, you'll never be mature, if you don't take the time to notice and speak to the Father. It's not about a songbook or "worship music". It's about noticing the Father and being able to compliment Him from the heart. What do you let capture and enrapture you? Who are you going to be? Be attentive to the flowers and the birds and the clouds and the trees, but also know that God wants your life. Let your worship change your life. That's spiritual worship.
