Just a Thought


If you stopped going to church for a couple weeks, would you notice a serious difference in your life and habits?  Other than missing some of your friends, and their subsequent phone calls.  Would there be a measurable difference?

I ask this because most people confuse “going to church” with a relationship with the Living God.  I can say the following with great confidence:  “If you would miss only your friends and the traditions of the church, then you have nothing.  If, on the other hand, you would experience a silence from God and miss it you likely have something worth holding tight to.”

The nearness of God is such a natural state of affairs for the soul that people often don’t know what they have until it is disrupted.  Just something to ponder folks.

    • Thank you for the comment. I sincerely appreciate it.

      As a truck driver I rarely get a chance to attend anymore. (by rarely I mean maybe twice a year) I’ve forgotten what it is to have a church family. But I give all praise to God that He has not left me an orphan. Each of us receives what we need as we need it. I think of those who are left out of the active family. Because of Him, I am confident that they are not alone either.

      This blog is my contribution to the family of God. And there is a vibrant desire within me that this place be shared with my brothers and sisters. Yet I rest in knowing that the Lord is in control.
