I feel like we tag on serving God to anything. Example: Telling students that letting someone go in front of them in line as "serving God". Unfortunately, I this is completely incorrect. Serving is of COURSE a Life Style, but it require a heart that is bent before our King, that is focused on Him and bringing Him glory. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I've been having an interesting time trying to figure out what worshipping God truly means. I feel like it's been watered down. Severely watered down. I am not ok with this. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;i love you :-)</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6404628488429311114/9168343006857704813/comments/default/31190184280714743'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6404628488429311114/9168343006857704813/comments/default/31190184280714743'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://markpdodd.blogspot.com/2008/07/may-grace-of-god-be-strong-perfecting.html?showComment=1217151480000#c31190184280714743' title=''/><author><name>yazz</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06581035755064151396</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='13267761720836559512'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://markpdodd.blogspot.com/2008/07/may-grace-of-god-be-strong-perfecting.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6404628488429311114.post-9168343006857704813' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6404628488429311114/posts/default/9168343006857704813' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6404628488429311114.post-599953149193260707</id><published>2008-07-23T14:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-23T14:08:00.000-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Good.

Why did Martha not understand Mary was in an act of worshiping Christ?
