Today we began to read about the first purpose for our life - worship. God planned us for His pleasure. It strikes me, as we’re in this MADE series, how often I forget that I am here only because He MADE ME! Many times I begin to feel self-sufficient, and forget that I need Him for my next breath. I love the Message paraphrase of Romans 12:1…

Take your everyday, ordinary life–your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking around life–and place it before God as an offering.

What a powerful challenge. To take every area of our life, and make it an offering to God! That’s my desire. I want God to take pleasure in everything I do. I want my whole life to be an act of worship; not just my church attendance or singing, but everything I do every day!
