No Offense BUT...

OK, so why do I bother doing blogging and newsletters and emails and lesson after bloomin lesson if nobody is going to respond read keep or care? I do the music every week and all I hear is: "when we gonna get more hymns?" I do a presentation and I hear, "why didn't you do such and such?" I beleive the problem with this line of thinking is that we have fallen desperately in love with us and our way of doing. I would love for people to come into worship on Sunday morning and not be so cynical, critical, and overrly analytical! We need to come before GOD on Sunday mornings prepared to be inhabited by the Holy Spirit! We expect for things to be done well and correct, but church is not supposed to the end game nor the climax of our worship, it should be where we shelter ourselves from a week spent in His Word on our knees before His throne, with hoarse throats from proclaiming His message. We should have to drag ourselves into the sanctuary with a weary grin on our faces not because we have submitted to the world all week and now need a dose of make me feel good about myself, but instead we should drag ourselves totthe altar of grace praising God that we were able to lay it all on the line this week for Him, that we spent so much energy trying to be consumed by His Spirit during the week that all we have left on Sunday is a total prostrate surrender before the Lord of Lords and King of Kings! This is His servant; so be it!
