Are You Sure Worship Is A Sacrifice

Someone asked is worship truly a sacrifice; I told her that worship is indeed a sacrifice and is also one of the reasons why we worship God and I went on ahead to relate to this article.  “The sacrifice to God is a broken and contrite heart, O God thou wilt not despise” Psalms 51:7  Worship is a sacrifice, it has an aroma, a sacrifice has a scent, men today wear a perfume which goes before them and when they leave their perfume, aroma or sacrifice stay behind and also follows them.
