CAN U WORSHIP JESUS BY YOURSELF IN YOUR ROOM???

RECENTLY I HAD AN EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFETIME. I WAS DOWN AND DEPRESSED FOR I DONT KNOW WHAT AND DIDNT FEEL LIKE DOING ANYTHING THAT WAS WORTH WHILE AND JUST SAT FOR LIKE AN HOUR DOING NOTHING. IT WAS A WASTEFUL HOUR BUT IN THAT HOUR WHICH WAS FILLED WITH PAIN FOR I FELT THE HORROR OF MY MEMORIES FROM THE PAST AND IN THAT PAIN AND IN THAT SUFFERING I HEARD A SMALL VOICE THE VOICE OF TRUTH SAYING TURN ON SOME WORSHIP MUSIC AND WORSHIP ME YOUR SAVIOUR AND YOUR GOD. AND SO I DID....

I LISTEN TO PANDORA RADIO STATION WHICH HAS ALL MY CHRISTIAN ARTISTS ON THERE AND WHEN I TURNED IT ON THE SONG THAT PLAYED WAS MY SAVIOUR MY GOD BY AARON SHUST..

LYRICS: I AM NOT SKILLED TO UNDERSTAND
WHAT GOD HAS WILLED, WHAT GOD HAS PLANNED
I ONLY KNOW AT HIS RIGHT HAND
STANDS ONE WHO IS MY SAVIOUR

I TAKE HIM AT HIS WORD AND DEED
CHRIST DIED TO SAVE ME; THIS I READ
AND IN MY HEART I FIND A NEED
OF HIM TO BE MY SAVIOUR

THAT HE WOULD LEAVE HIS PLACE ON HIGH
AND COME FOR A SINFUL MAN TO DIE
YOU COUNT IT STRANGE SO ONCE DID I
BEFORE I KNEW MY SAVIOUR

CHORUS: MY SAVIOUR LOVES, MY SAVIOUR LIVES
MY SAVIOUR'S ALWAYS THERE FOR ME
MY GOD: HE WAS, MY GOD: HE IS
MY GOD IS ALWAYS GONA BE

YES LIVING, DYING LET ME BRING
MY STRENGTH, MY SOLACE FROM THIS SPRING
THAT HE WHO LIVES TO BE MY KING
ONCE DIED TO BE MY SAVIOUR

THAT HE WOULD LEAVE HIS PLACE ON HIGH
AND COME FOR SINFUL MAN TO DIE
YOU COUNT IT STRANGE SO ONCE DID I
BEFORE I KNEW MY SAVIOUR

CHORUS:

This song just amazed me so much and just strike me deep in my heart and made me understand even more the price Jesus paid by dying on that cross and his gift was ultimate and beautiful. Yet there i was full in tears still knowing what happened in the past and not realizing that i can just take it to Jesus and that He is there during our hurts and our excitement and our joys and our fears. The answer to the title of this blog is yes because i had like an hour worshipping Jesus in my own room and no one made me its just the voice of Jesus telling me to do something and me doing and obeying my King and Saviour and my God. the next songs reminded me of the most simple truths. Songs like Sanctified by MercyMe, Watch Over me by Aaron Shust, Fragile Breath by Todd Agnew, Kindness by Christ Tomlin and Restored by jeremy Camp. It was probably one of the most amazing days of my life where through obeying Jesus Christ i had a breakthrough and all that pain just left me and i had a peaceful night and at the end of it all i can do i just worship God even more. And i cant stop and i wont stop.

I love that song! YES, you can have fabulous worship times with Jesus, all alone with just you and Him in your room.... Keep having those times! :) Love you, girl!
