Is our heart present in our worship of God, or is it far away thinking about our own desires? And when we worship, are we actively seeking to know God and follow Him, or are we there to make ourselves look good? Isaiah asks – no, shouts! these accusations in Chapter 58, but he also tells us how to fix these problems and truly worship God.
