A sacrifice of praise and worship flows from those whose hope is in God. David lived on the run, being hunted down by King Saul and associates. In time, his own elevation to king would not change David’s passion for worship. Whether in a high place or lowly, we can worship-thankful for God’s mercy and grace. When our teacher (Rabboni) and Lord (Jesus Christ) washed the feet of his disciples, He displayed a new way to love one another. Not out of powerful status or position but out of pouring His life forth confidently in service to those called His. – Teresa #givingoutofullness #confidentinhisidentity #wearecalledsonsandaughtersofourfather #loveoneanother

Psalm 54: 4-7 (ESV)

Behold, God is my helper;

    the Lord is the upholder of my life.

5 

He will return the evil to my enemies;

    in your faithfulness put an end to them.

6 

With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to you;

    I will give thanks to your name, O Lord, for it is good.

7 

For he has delivered me from every trouble,

    and my eye has looked in triumph on my enemies.
