Your 5 Senses

 Touch/feel, Sight, Taste, Smell and Hearing

We were created for God's pleasure and were  created to experience pleasure. Pleasure is define as a "Joy to behold" or to assume enjoyment. Our senses were given to us for pleasure to bring God pleasure. When our heads touch our soft pillows, it is pleasure to us.When we feel the warmth of the sun, it is pleasure to us. When we hear a beautiful song, it brings pleasure to us.  When we see the person we love, it is pleasure to us. When we taste our favorite flavor of ice-cream, it is pleasure to us.

But how do we bring God pleasure from our pleasure? Rick Warren states in A Purpose Driven Life that bringing pleasure to God is called, "worship." Worship is giving it ALL back to God: Let them shout for joy and be glad, Who favor my righteous cause; And let them say continually, "Let the LORD be magnified, Who has pleasure in the prosperity of His servant."(Psalms 35:27 NKJV)


 Our gratitude in our joy is given back to the great creator for his pleasure.
When we feel pleasure through our senses, we are worshiping God.
