Worship is a sacrifice.

“Worship is giving God the best that He has given you.” – Oswald Chambers

Worship is costly, and sometimes not convenient.

“Worship should be costly, not convenient. Cost determines worth. So, worship with no cost is worship with no worth. If Christ is truly worthy, then what price are you willing to pay to bring Him the glory due His name?” – Rick Pino
