We never begin worship. We aim it.
The enemy of joy is not suffering, it is idolatry. 
Church: if the world could see a snapshot of our worship today, would they perceive that we believe our God is worthy of praise?
If the gospel has never broken you, you have never really heard it. 
My scars are numerous, my flesh is powerless, my enemy is dangerous, but my God is glorious and His grace is totally sufficient.
If I don't fight every day to 'fix' my eyes on Jesus, my ADD soul will look to a million lesser things.
If there's no Scripture in the worship set, then it's not really a worship set.
Worship doesn't happen when a guy gets on a stage w/ a guitar. It happens when faith-filled eyes behold the glory of Christ. 
The greatest motivation to share the gospel w/ someone today & everyday: Another voice around the throne. A louder song for Jesus. 
God's greatest glory is that he is good. The brightest gem in the crown of God is his goodness.
