I heard a wonderful message this morning about worship. We all have heard that we are to do"all things for the Lord", but the application of that concept has not always been connected to worship. Jim Hackney, from the Heritage church of Christ, presented a very good approach to how this works.
This is my summary of his message, although I cannot hope to capture the whole experience here. He used Romans 12: 1-2 to show that Christians should offer their bodies as a living sacrifice in everything we do in order to truly worship God. That includes any action that we do, every day of the week, that shows God's love for others, regardless of whether we mention God while doing so. I have been saying for many years that we worship God when we do good deeds for others, but Jim brought it all together behind one of my favorite scriptures. This is an excellent application of the Truth in action.
