A War of Worship is Playing Out in Our Souls

A War of Worship is Playing Out in Our Souls
What do you love? What do you really, really love today? What do you spend most of your time thinking about? What rules your heart? The things we love, the things we spend most of our time thinking about, these are the things that we worship. These are the things that guide our desires and write our story.

​Just a quick survey of things we love finds these ten at the top of the list:
  1. Cake
  2. Shiplap
  3. Pinterest
  4. Fashion
  5. Makeup
  6. Travel
  7. Coffee
  8. Organizing
  9. Crafts
  10. A night out

“Today a war of worship will rumble in your heart and what captures your worship will control your desires and what controls your desires will shape your living. ​

The battle of grace is not first about commanding our behavior, but about reclaiming and controlling the life-shaping, moment-by-moment, street-level worship of our hearts.

It is unavoidably true of us all; what rules our hearts will exercise inescapable control over our thoughts, desires, words and behavior.” —Paul David Tripp
What we worship can make us, or it can break us. What we worship will write chapters of our story. It will become part of our journey.
​I love what Paul Tripp says about the battle of grace and war of worship going on in our hearts. "The battle of grace is not first about commanding our behavior, but about reclaiming and controlling the life-shaping, moment-by-moment, street-level worship of our hearts." The battle of grace is about reclaiming the worship of our hearts. ​

Corporate Worship

These are just a few of our Corporate Worship IG posts on Pinterest. To see more, hop on over to our Pinterest and search "Corporate Worship." We also carry a few, like the one above, in our Etsy shop.

Reclaiming and controlling the life-shaping, moment-by-moment, street-level worship of our hearts—that is the battle of grace. What do we need to reclaim today? ​
