Greetings Pastor Bill,

Your reflection on worship as a lifestyle is both inspiring and deeply rooted in Scripture. You quoted “Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song” (Psalm 95:1-2), reminding us that worship begins with joyful praise but extends far beyond the sanctuary. You also highlighted “And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus…” (Colossians 3:17), which beautifully expands the scope of worship to include every moment of our lives.

A verse that further deepens this truth is Romans 12:1: “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.” This passage reframes worship not just as an act, but as a way of being. It calls us to surrender our whole selves—our time, energy, and choices—as offerings to God, making worship a continuous expression of devotion.

Living this way means seeing our daily routines—whether folding laundry, writing emails, or caring for loved ones—as sacred opportunities to honor God. It transforms mundane tasks into moments of communion. When we model this perspective, we invite others to see that worship is not reserved for Sunday mornings but is woven into the fabric of everyday life.

You asked: “How do you incorporate worship into your daily routines, and how has this changed your perspective on both work and relationships?” One way is by practicing gratitude throughout the day—thanking God for small blessings, praying before decisions, and treating others with the love Christ has shown us. This shift in perspective turns work into service and relationships into ministry.

To the forum: What’s one daily habit you’ve adopted that helps you stay in a posture of worship?

Blessings, Pastor Larry
