A married son who became independent of his father at last came to him. The whole family dined together at one table and shared affectionate dialogue after a long separation. Father looked at his son's countenance. “How about your job these days? Is it bearable? You look pale! Are you OK?” The son told the father that he was getting along somehow. When his son returned, the father handed him a large amount of money in his son's hand.

The place where you eat dinner with your father is blessed. It is the place where the father gets to know his children's circumstances and helps them gladly if necessary. Christians' worship of God is like this. God studies the faces of all of those attending the public worship. God inspects then all problems of jobs, businesses and home of all who are in the public worship. And he plans to help them in best way, in best time.

I heard that even healthy people have cancer cells in body several times a day. If you are healthy, your immune system destroys them, but when you are weak, they become a fatal disease. God saw jibsa(deacon) Kim who was participating in the public worship, not knowing that he got cancer. God says to himself, ‘Oh! Jibsa Kim, not knowing his cancer, has come to my house (the chapel) and is worshiping me! Today, he sings hymns more loudly than usual! How can I just look on! Jibsa Kim, I’ll heal your disease.’ So we may attend church without knowing our various dangers trifle or severe. But the Father, the omniscient and omnipotent God, penetrates all the problems of his children who, though being very busy, leaving their work unfinished for a moment, have come to worship him, and takes necessary measures while they are not aware of it.

It is not easy for ordinary people to meet the president and ask for help. Considering that, worship is a great privilege for Christians. Worship is a place where you can meet the God, the mighty God, and seek help in him when you are exhausted and worn out in this harsh world. Of course, the worship ought to be solely for the glory of God and his pleasure. But one who makes more profit on the worship is not the God but the man who just has shown his face to God there. Because God is richer than man (and is very merciful)!
