Worship: The Worship of Serving the Worshipers
By christopherlyon
I like this Billy Graham quote:
The highest form of worship is the worship of unselfish Christian service. The greatest form of praise is the sound of consecrated feet seeking out the lost and helpless.
Romans 12 is pretty clear that using our spiritual gifts to serve each other is square one in a life of worship.
If you are spending time, energy and creativity to lead and/or support others in worship this weekend, that in itself is an act of worship, right? That act of service may culminate in songs of praise, but your sacrifice of service before, during and after is an even more personal worship to God.
Enjoy the work. Accept the gift of purpose that comes with serving others for God’s glory. We are created for this.
