The definition for "worship" that is used most in the NT is proskuneō. Notice that it is very close to proseuchomai, which is the most used definition for "pray".

In the Greek, "worship" means to "kiss the hand" or "meaning to kiss, like a dog licking his master’s hand".

It means, metaphorically, that we trust God "entirely" with our care and that is, or should be, our heart and focus when we commune with God.
