When God asks us to worship Him, He is asking us to fulfill the deepest longing in Himself, which is His passionate desire to give Himself to us. It is what Martin Luther called "the joyful exchange.""
"Marriage is an exclusive union between one man and one woman, publicly acknowledged, permanently sealed, and physically consummated."
"Those who doubt most, and yet strive to overcome their doubts, turn out to be some of Christ's strongest disciples."
