Worship happens whenever we intentionally cherish God and value him above all else in life.

Openness means we must find ways to make space to notice God and the movements of the Holy Spirit.

Our true identity is found when we recognize and name the idols that consume our energy, time, and hearts and by God’s grace relinquish our dependance on them.

Psalm 139:23–24 HCSB
Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my concerns. See if there is any offensive way in me; lead me in the everlasting way.
ps 139
2 Corinthians 5:16–21 HCSB
From now on, then, we do not know anyone in a purely human way. Even if we have known Christ in a purely human way, yet now we no longer know Him in this way. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away, and look, new things have come. Everything is from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: That is, in Christ, God was reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed the message of reconciliation to us. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, certain that God is appealing through us. We plead on Christ’s behalf, “Be reconciled to God.” He made the One who did not know sin to be sin for us, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
