A Time to Worship {Grace & Truth 26}

What is your approach to your time spent with the Lord?

Maybe you have a routine, a certain chair, a specific flavor of coffee that you enjoy. But what about how you feel about the whole reason you spend time with the Lord?

Do you do it to cross something off you list? Or is there true adoration and love for your Creator involved?

I know how it is to spend time with the Lord out of obligation. I read hurriedly, not digging very deep, most times forgetting what I read as soon as I closed the Bible. << (confession of many Christians)

I obeyed, but I didn’t worship. There’s a huge difference.

Obedience isn’t always worship. But worship always inspires obedience.

These two posts really stood out to me this week:

Kelsey Fergusons post “Why do You Have Quiet Time? Obligation or Love?” touches on this subject from a young mom’s perspective. Sometimes it’s hard to schedule a daily time with God when you have small children. Worship isn’t about strict rules. We can still adore Him as we change a diaper.

Then Karen Brown’s post “The Great Pedagogy” is a fiery reminder that our greatest act of worship is to remain teachable. God doesn’t need us to be the next greatest truth sayer- He could make rocks do that if He wanted. God wants us to simple come to Him to be taught. To worship Him.

Kelsey and Karen, thank you for spreading great truth’s for Him! Please grab the featured button and put it at the bottom of your post. A text link back will do, as well. Again, thank you for sharing at Grace & Truth!

Now for an opportunity for Christian Bloggers!

Have you heard of Christian Bloggers Bootcamp? If you’ve been around here in the last 6-8 weeks, I’m sure you’ve noticed a lot of changes to my blog.

Well, now you can read where I was getting my advice & instruction, how it has impacted my blogging mission, and few analytics. (Be gracious- I’m no power blogger. It was intimidating to post the screen shot of my growth. But stats don’t lie!)

I would not offer it here, if I did not believe you would benefit from Christian Bloggers Bootcamp. Impacting others for Christ is your goal and mine. There really is a way to learn how to do that without compromising your integrity or your wallet.

I’d love to answer any questions you have about this course. Click the image!
