sunday moring rush


You wake 7:30.  Time to get ready for church again.  As you get ready you pick out your Sunday best instead of jeans or sweats like you wear through the week.  You do your hair and make up as well. once that is all said and done you grab something for breakfast real fast and by that time is almost 9am.  Now is the time you grab you bag and bible and head out the door. It would be awful  if you showed up late to church.

As you greet everyone at church you put on that fake smile like nothing is wrong in your life.  you then sit down and look at the clock and start thinking that the pastor better be short and sweet to get to the message because you have some much more to do today.   once you leave you put another fake smile and pretend that you heard everything the pastor had to say when really you are thinking what you are going to fix for lunch.   

this is just one example that that we are just going through the motions and not focusing on what is really important.  God is the top priority but yet we are just going to church just to make your family name look good. it is all for show. what are we doing?  we are acting like we are going to a dog show to be judged on who is the best groomed at church.  YOU have got to be kidding me??!!   What is a Christian?  well no one knows anymore because so many of us that say we are Christians are just doing putting on a show.  they don't want to disappoint mom or dad by not following in their footsteps of life.   No wonder so many choose not to believe anymore.  we are nothing but a big group of hypocrites. 

We have to make a change.  let me ask you this.  If someone asked you  how do you know that God is there for all of us how would you explain that to them?  sure you can say well it says it in the bible.  Anyone that can read would know that.  You really have to dig deep to give them an answer.  your answer could make or break this person on whether or not they chose to believe. 

Stop going through the motions!! Stop acting like you are going to get first place for being the best dressed at church!!!  sure no one is perfect and we all do sin but we have to learn to repent that sin and give it all to Jesus.  he is the only way to the father.   so next time you go to church be yourself and go because you are giving all your glory to God and you are there to worship him and learn more about his word.
