[[1997-11-18-Be Made To Worship|(Abraham Nov. 18, 1997]]-distinction between *stillness* and worship)
   −
MIRIAM: It seems like I should have more of a refreshment, but when I go into the *stillness*--I think that is what you're trying to teach us now--is to find more refreshment with the Father through worship, and so on. But I get so sleepy when I try to stop and pause. The most worship I can do, or most appreciation, is when driving, or after hearing a beautiful song, or seeing a good point in a movie, or something, being so awesome-filled. Any suggestions to me personally to help?

CALVIN: It seems like I should have more of a refreshment, but when I go into the [[stillness]]--I think that is what you're trying to teach us now--is to find more refreshment with [[the Father]] through [[worship]], and so on. But I get so [[sleepy]] when I try to stop and pause. The most [[worship]] I can do, or most appreciation, is when driving, or after hearing a [[beautiful]] [[song]], or seeing a good point in a movie, or something, being so awesome-filled.

ABRAHAM: Yes. The *stillness* is separate from worship. The song or a beautiful mountain scene can bring about worship. The *stillness* is more of you listening for Father. Worship is you giving to Father. Being small so you can truly feel His presence. Worship is a wonderful way to better know the Father's good attributes, to have a personal relationship, yes. *stillness* can always be improved upon, and many will find various techniques, but worship is just natural and overflowing. Worship is gratitude for everything, through your difficult times and your joy-filled times. A certain worshipful energy is always helpful in making one who desires to be self-forgetful be self-forgetful. Does this answer?(Yes. Very good distinction between the two. Thanks.)
