Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in exhilarating freedom:

“And he worshiped the LORD there.”
(1 Samuel 1:28)

He worshiped You “there” –

in Your house, at Shiloh.

It’s a little tough for me to make it to Shiloh today, Jesus.

Where’s the best place for me to worship You?

In a church building?

To step into some of the great cathedrals of the world
would no doubt so inspire me

that worship would flow from my being.

Then I imagine pulling up to a tiny country church…

white paint peeling
grass growing high in the yard.

What if I would step inside, sense oneness with the saints

who once sang “Rock of Ages” in this hallowed place?

But why does it have to be in a church building?

Why not while looking up at the sky
talking with a friend
lying in bed at night?

Where is the best place to worship You, LORD?

Wherever I am.
