God’s desire and plan for us is to transform us into the likeness of his Son, to mold our lives into the vessels he wants us to be so that we carry his goodness to the world to the praise of his glory. But this necessary and miraculous work can’t happen if we’re constantly running from him.

Romans 12:1: “Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God – this is your spiritual act of worship.” – This is good worship – this is our proper response to God.
