Service as Worship
Present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.
Romans 12:1
When many people think of worship, they envision stained–glass windows and pipe organs. But in the Bible, the same word that is used to describe worship also means service.
The greatest worship you ever render to God is to serve Him. For Paul, service meant a total commitment.
Paul wrote to Timothy, “I thank God, whom I serve with a pure conscience” (2 Tim 1:3). Paul was saying that you could look deep inside him and see that he served God with his entire being. Paul’s service was an act of worship. It was deep, genuine, and honest. That is the real measure of true spirituality. The only way to serve God is with total commitment.
