"Worshiping God does not require that we understand or approve of what God has allowed into our lives. It simply requires a heart that desires to trust God and a will that is bent toward obedience to God regardless of our feelings. We worship God because He is worthy, not because we necessarily feel like it. And as we worship in the midst of our pain, we are able to gain perspective on that pain. This is a costly worship--which makes it all the more worthwhile and precious to God."

We're reading the same book! Have you read "Holding on to Hope" by Nancy Guthrie? It's also very good!
I love this quote. So true as far as a costly worship is worshiping in the midst of pain. Praying for you guys.
AMEN!!!
