Worship in Different Tongues

It has been about three weeks now since Jason and I arrived here in Krabi, and on our first Sunday we had the opportunity to worship with some Thai Christians at Santisuk Church.  On several occasions, we also had the opportunity to study the Bible and worship with overseas Filipino workers as well as Germans in the area.  In the last few days, I have been reflecting back on how privileged I am to be given the chance to hear our Father being worshipped and praised in different tongues, in Chinese, English, Taiwanese, Filipino, and Thai; and how privileged I have been to worship alongside fellow Christians whose language I may not speak, but whose hearts I know is totally surrendered to our God.  

What I have been given, I could have never planned it better.  What I have dreamt of experiencing, God has dreamt far more than I could have ever imagined.  What I thought was the ultimate success, God has entrusted me with far greater things.  The plans I laid down were too small for Him.  He loves me too much to give me less than what He knows is best for me.

My heart is full right now with an overwhelming peace and joy for what He has shown me.  A glimpse of the kind of worship that one day we will all see.  Perfect worship to our Father in different tongues.  

All will bow down before Him.


Dear God, Thank You.  Thank You for your amazing people, for the different languages, for the different ways of life, and for the different styles of worship.  In Jesus Name!
