work worship


This afternoon Ben and I slipped up to the classroom building to get a few photos of the afternoon master's classes.  As we rounded the women's dorm we could hear singing, strong and acappella. I thought the worship band was practicing for Monday, but the chapel was silent.  Curious, we headed into the cafeteria, only to find the work-study crew, men and women together, singing praises while they worked, washing the hundreds of dishes left from lunch.

The kitchen was hot, there were mountains of dishes, and I know I'm not the only one who had a big week and was ready to r-e-s-t.

But I would have stood there in the doorway all day had Ben allowed it, because their worship transformed the load of it all into a sacred space, radiating worship throughout the campus and over the walls.

Working together, as worship, can be such a precious privilege.

The mundane, for His glory, can take us to His throne.

I forget.

They remind me, not on purpose, again.
