I have wondered the same thing. BUT...

How about this: if I told you that your phone would only charge in the presence of electricity (or solar), then you would have to charge your phone that way. Or have no power.

Our fearful minds connect easily to negativity and ego and division. But if we connect to him, focus on his majesty, connect with pure Love, then there is no room for fear and we find peace and hear his voice for direction.

It's not his need for our attention, it's our need to focus on the only thing that heals, unites, and restores us. We only recharge in the presence of power greater than our own. Worship is what connects us.
