JORDAN: I really felt your heart forworship as I was listening to youralbum. You know, I’ve listened toa lot of singers, and sometimes itcan be more of a performance, andthat’s fine. But when you hear theheart of a true worshipper, and youfeel their heart for the Lord, youcan connect to God in a differentway, which is what it’s really about.It’s not about the performance; it’sabout an experience with the Lord.JAVEN: That’s what worship means.Worship is about being open andwilling to trust God. So, if you’rein a position where you don’t knowwhat to do, and you can’t find theanswers for finances, or for healing,or for whatever it might be, startworshipping. Then, God can comein and change things!JORDAN: That’s right. My Dadalways says that worship sets theatmosphere for miracles. And thatcould mean a miracle in any part ofyour life.
