If God only used perfect people, nothing would get done. God will use anybody if you're available.

The most important is to prepare you for eternity.

After learning to love God (worship), learning to love others is the second purpose of your life.

You can keep your own religion - Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism, Mormonism - you just need to add Jesus to the equation. Then you become complete. You become a Buddhist with Jesus, a Hindu with Jesus, a Muslim with Jesus and so on. You can throw out the term Christianity and still be a follower of Jesus. In fact, you can throw out the term Christian too. In some countries, you could be persecuted for calling yourself a Christian, and there is no need for that. Just ask Jesus into your heart, you don't have to identify yourself as a Christian.

Remember how far you've come, not just how far you have to go. You are not where you want to be, but neither are you where you used to be.

The most common mistake Christians make in worship today is seeking an experience rather than seeking God

If not to God, you will surrender to the opinions or expectations of others, to money, to resentment, to fear, or to your own pride, lusts, or ego. You were designed to worship God and if you fail to worship Him, you will create other things (idols) to give your life to. You are free to choose, what you surrender to but you are not free from the consequence of that choice.
