Do you worship, and if so how, what and why?

I worship Allah (swt) 5 times a day. The reason is because I submit to my creator.

Personally I love worship every week at church. There's many times when I close my eyes, and it's like I'm not even in church anymore, but instead am standing before Him. The most amazing part is even when I'm sick, during worship that melts away, and I feel renewed.
It started really meaning something to me last summer when I had this vision of how everything was worshiping Him, and it both did and didn't matter that we did. It wasn't necessary, but He was glad of it, which is why it mattered. It really hit home why my worshipping Him was something important then.

I try to worship every day, but I end up doing it about 4-5 times a week. I perform a daily offering at my shrine after ritual. I do it as a way to not only acknowledge Hathor's power, but as a way of thanking Her for the wonderful things She has given me in my life. It gives me a feeling of peace and serenity that follows me the entire morning.

I'd like to worship every day, but I don't always manage to do so. I do pray every day, but not always in the mindful and dedicated form that I would define as "worship".

I don't go to church or worship and haven't since Easter. I do keep God in mind in my daily life. I try to treat others the way that I would want to be treated. I haven't really found a religion or faith I can agree with yet.

I try to begin each morning and end the day with a prayer, but I'm usually so tired that I fall asleep during it. Hope He doesn't get offended. Aside from church, I'll study the scriptures and hum or sing a hymn randomly, though it seems to happen most often as I'm walking to my classes

i enjoy daily private worship
with scripture and meditation and usually perfume or incense
and try to tolerate weekly worship
where they say "we confess that we have not been tolerant of other ethn icities" which is just rubbish and i won't say it

For me, it depends on exactly what you mean by worship. Using the term loosely, I suppose I include worship in my day to day practices just about every day, usually in the form of quick prayers or whatever. But I don't do any sort of worship that includes congregation, ritual, lengthy prayers, and such very often. So, yeah, I guess it just depends.
As for why I worship, I guess it just makes me feel more connected to the world around me, both to the seen and the unseen. I don't really see worship as a form of submission to gods; for me it's more like a way to connect to the gods and to all of creation.

I sort of worship....I don't think anyone else would call it that though. lol. I take the trouble to get out of bed, don't hurt any of the many people that never seem to have anything smart to say, think about God and some of the things I take for granted, and for the most part offering what assisstance I can to anyone that asks.
In short, I try to treat others as I think I'd like to be treated, try to understand God's seemingly insane mind as well as His creations, and try my best to keep to my own affairs.

Sanguina Cruenta I'd like to worship every day, but I don't always manage to do so. I do pray every day, but not always in the mindful and dedicated form that I would define as "worship". Me, too.

when i could worship with those of my own persuasion, we would sing a cappella, burn 8incense, have intercessory prayer, often enjoy a little chamber music!

I used to worship every week in church, but lately I haven't been going to church, but I do try to pray daily, and praise God for everything he has given me. As for why I worship blatantly put, because He told me to.
