the whole book of psalms, which the israelites used in personal and corporate worship, have all three of the above types of worship.

Comment on Loving God vs Being in Love with God by Erik

As a Christian who is in love with God and is grateful to be paralyzed because it has brought me so much closer to my God, I would point the reader to theme of divine romance running through the whole of the Bible. Many times God referred to Israel as a lover. The Song of Solomon is widely understood to be a work of poetry symbolizing the relationship God wants us to have with Him. Eph. 5 states that the intimate union of the marital act is a picture of the way Christ loves the Church (us). The Next Life begins with the Wedding Feast of the Bridegroom and the Bride (the Church). We are commanded (it’s not optional) to love the Lord with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength. The only kind of love that consumes a person like this is true and passionate romantic love between a lover and the beloved. Christ is not a literal boyfriend but the Counterpart to Whom mankind is the perfect complement, taken from His side. True romantic love involves not only commitment, a desire to please, and willingness to sacrifice but also delight, affections, and the need (not merely want) to be close to and one with the beloved. We were created to be a counterpart for the Son of God, a perfect complement. Worship is supposed to be analogous to romantic loving. Even the old vows included, “with my body, I thee worship.” God wants us to love Him much more passionately and completely than we love anyone else, the way one loves when they are in love. There truly is chasm of difference between merely loving God and actually being in love with Him

The phrase “in love” makes a lot of christians uncomfortable because the connotation of romance is assumed. However, some people default to that term because of the overpowering intensity they experience – not necessarily because they envision God as a boyfriend. If the love of a person for God exceeds all, which for many in the new and old testament it did, then it follows that no terminology is sufficiently emphatic. Anyway, attempting to set constraints on how others may properly characterize their spirituality seems out of character with the essence of christianity.

I don’t think any worship song deserves to be called the worst one you’ve ever heard, because they are all beautiful because they are all written for the same purpose – to glorify God. That being said, I think this song is gorgeous. I heard it for the first time something like two or three years ago and it still hits me like a ton of bricks every time. Because it says he wrote it years before he ever performed it, I don’t think it’s original intent was to be anything more than a song about his thoughts. The fact that a song like that can have an impact on people…it’s crazy.
