Praising Together for Tomorrow: Day 5

Which parts of worship stay with you? Memorize our verses for today.

by David Joynt on November 03, 2016


ROMANS 12:1-2

Great worship together can permeate the rest of our lives. The songs and prayers of worship can echo in our hearts all week. The lessons of scripture can animate our thoughts and guide our actions. The friendships we renew can give our discipleship text and fiber.

Worship can prepare us for the daily dedication and the mental renewal that really change us. Conversation with God can deepen and invade our business lives, our family lives, and all our relationships. It is the daily gift of ourselves to God that becomes our truest worship.
