First: Love God

You are designed to love God and love others. Loving God means worshiping Him.

Worshiping is not some strange out-of-body activity. Worshiping is recognizing and responding to the worth of something or someone. It's what we do every day.

Every decision is a act of worship during which we decide what is most valuable to us.

Every place is a place of worship, at which we decide what is worthy of our resources (time, energy, money, passion, etc.). Church. Walmart. Your friend's house. The mall. The stadium. You name it.

Every song is a worship song. Some songs worship love. Some worship women. Some worship fun. Some worship God. Regardless, every band is a praise band.

In everything we do, we are recognizing and responding to the value we perceive in people or things. This is worship. We are designed to worship God above all else. He is most worthy of our time, energy, money, and passion.

So, in order to fulfill your life's mission, you must grow to see God for who He is and respond accordingly, loving Him with all your mind, soul, and heart. This sort of love works itself out into every decision we make, every place we go, every song we sing, everything we do and all that we are.

As you attempt to love God, you'll soon realize that you can't simply change your preferences and suddenly find God ultra-valuable. This is why you need Jesus. When you place all your faith in Him for everything pertaining to life you are reborn with new desires. These new desires grow over time as you walk in obedience to His teaching (the Bible) and your new eyes grow to see God more and more clearly. The more clearly you see Him, the more you'll respond in worship, fulfilling your life's purpose.
