"Don't let your worship decline to the performance of mere duty. Don't let the child-like awe and wonder be choked out by unbiblical views of virtue. Don't let the scenery and poetry and music of your relationship with God shrivel up and die. You have capacities for joy you can scarcely imagine."
-John Piper, "Desiring God"
I love this. What a challenging , convicting, and beautiful statement. Jesus, help my worship not to decline to duty. Give me child-like faith, and continue to help me fight for the joy that only you provide.
