Worship from INSIDE-UPWARDS not OUTSIDE-INWARDS.
That means that we worship from INSIDE, with our hearts, as the MercyMe's "Hearts Sing Louder" says,"May our hearts sing louder than our voices, Jesus." We direct our hearts UPWARDS to God.
We don't worship by presenting OUTSIDE a quality product to be judged by human standards, like great art, whilst taking the pride in that great work INWARDS, feeling satisfied with the quality product and the praise that does, or should in our estimation, go with it.
(Now that I look at it again this reminds me of the Berenstain's book, Inside, Outside, Upside Down.)
