Love with all your heart, love with all your mind, love with all your soul, love with all your existence.
That is worship in Spirit and truth.
Sounds simple enough.
Watch how people and their pets that love each other interact.
That is worship.

The love of God is absolute in His Word.
What then does "His Word" say about His love for you? Is it absolute? Does He absolutely love you?

Exaggerations aside, if indeed Absolute love is equal to/describes the act of worship, your God also worships you.His love for me is far greater than absolute.

Why ask me things that are to high for you to obtain or that to which you have never experienced?
It will only lead to your own disappointment and frustrations. To which you have
first hand knowledge. Many things of the living God have to be experienced first hand,
before they can be understood and comprehended in the form of wisdom.
Stop nagging me with you incompetent questions.
