What does God want? - The problem with humanity is not sin. The problem with humanity is worshiping something other than the Father, son, and spirit which leads to sin. Sin is the negative fruit of what's called idolatry. Worship is this… I find my love significance, identity, and purpose in something or someone. And Jesus is saying I'm the ultimate lover I give you a new identity, I give you significance, and I give you purpose. Your significance is… “you become a son or daughter of the Most High King”. – Dr. Derwin Gray, Transformation Church
O God Almighty, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Your only begotten Son, give me a body unstained, a pure heart, a watchful mind, and an upright understanding, and the presence of Your Holy Spirit, that I may obtain and ever hold fast to an unshaken faith in Your Truth, through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord; through whom be glory to You in the Holy Spirit, forever and ever. AMEN. – The Clementine Liturgy
