Preparation for Worship

• I need to know God has things figured out, that
  if my math is wrong we are still going to be
  okay. And wonder is that feeling we get when we
  let go of our silly answers, our mapped out rules
  that we want God to follow. I dont think there
  is any better worship than wonder.
