Today's Scripture Reading: Psalm 100

1Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.2Worship the Lord with gladness; come before him with joyful songs.3Know that the Lord is God. It is he who made us, and we are his;we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.4Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise;give thanks to him and praise his name.5For the Lord is good and his love endures forever;his faithfulness continues through all generations.

Excerpt:

Why do we serve the Lord? Some might say they do it out of a feeling of owing God for what he has done for us, and some might say it is simply what Christians ought to do to display their righteousness. We may serve God and serve people around us because we have a sense of duty or obligation to do so. But many of us can attest to the feeling of when somebody is around even when they don't want to be, especially when there is work involved that stretches the boundaries of our comfort zone. As a believer I have heard many times from pastors (and I have even preached this as well), that we ought to always seek to be uncomfortable in our spiritual walks with God. While this holds theologically true, today I rather take another approach to our service to God.
