Jesus seems to set the bar much higher. He states in Luke 10:27 that the greatest commandment ever given to those who would follow him is to "Love the Lord your God with ALL your heart and with ALL your soul and with ALL your strength and with ALL your mind..." Apparently Jesus isn't interested in having part of our love and devotion, he wants ALL of it! Have you ever thought about what it means to worship God with ALL of who you are?
The Apostle Paul reiterates this same principle in Romans 12 when he says "I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God - this," he says, "is your spiritual act of worship." So apparently worship isn't about singing songs to God or taking time pray in the morning or reading a few verses from the Bible, although those things can be an important part of our worship and devotion. True worship is about giving ALL of your life to God and not just honoring him in certain moments with certain portions of your life, but seeking to honor him every moment of every day with ALL of your life.
What adjustments do you need to make in your life to worship God with ALL of who you are?
