When worship does God’s story, our contemplation is simply a delight in the story that worship does. The delight of worship is not expressed in words like “That was a great program,” or “I loved the music today,” or “What an entertaining sermon,” or “I really felt like I was worshiping today” . . . . These are descriptions of delight in self as if “I did it; I broke through; I really worshiped.” Worship that generates that kind of response is not worship that glorifies God and his story. Rather, that kind of worship glorifies the self as if the self has generated worship. True worship generates the sense of “What a great story,” or “I can’t believe that God would do that for the world and for me,” or “What a God to become human and to restore all things through Christ.” — Robert Webber, The Divine Embrace: Recovering the Passionate Spiritual Life (Grand Rapids: Baker Books, 2006), 238.
