chapter 17 "and to live for God's glory"
In this chapter, Kauflin talks about living for God's glory. Even though it is impossible to be perfect, we should strive to be like Jesus. We should commit our lives to live like Jesus did. Firstly, Kauflin
says that worshiping God should make us humble. This is important because we should use our opportunity to provide others worship as a humbling action, not one to take pride in. Next, worshiping God should make us secure because our security ultimately rests in God's love. Kauflin goes on to talk about other things worshiping should make us and I think the most important is that it should make us loving.
I really agree with Kauflin when he says that when we gather for worship, God himself should capture our attention. I think that it is hard for some people to just think about God when worshiping because many worries can come to mind. For example, we can be to scared to raise up our hands, or sing out loud with all our heart. But at the end of the day we are worshiping God, and it is important to remember who He is.

I totally agree with how we should focus solely on God while we worship and not be distracted by our many worries and just be glad that we have this opportunity.
ReplyDeleteIt's important for God to get our attention when we worship, as well as getting the attention of the congregation. Showing how we feel when we worship can be difficult or uncomfortable, but I'm glad you think that it's important that we're worshiping God in the end so we shouldn't focus on others judging. It's good to clear your mind before worship so that the worries we have will go away and won't negatively affect us.
ReplyDeleteYes, agree, Bob is definitely right about having the best attitude as possible.
