Focus of worship ...

What is in your mind shall never happen—the thought, ‘Let us be like the nations, like the tribes of the countries, and worship wood and stone.’ (Ezekiel 20:32).

Oh, the temptation to be like everybody else. Yet, the best realize their God-given strengths and human weaknesses and focus upon ways to use them well.

Use of strengths such as being an excellent listener, a loving servant, giving witness, and having insight, etc. And use of weaknesses such as loss of family; struggling with disease; and having a healthy way of dealing with the negatives of life.

And most of all just realizing that you don't have to be like everybody else because God has made you uniquely who you are.
