Should We Go To Church -
from Pastor Rob
|
It's Sunday morning. What should we do today? Go to church? No, not this week. We can go next month when they have the potluck. Today, let's sleep in and then take a morning walk. We can hit the IHOP around 10:00, take our time, and then go to the small-town art festival before the crowd gets too big.
It's Sunday morning, and ohhh, I am hung over. My life is falling apart. A DUI and now a likely divorce. O God, what will I do? God! Why would God listen to me, if there is a God? I haven't given God a second thought in years. Now I want to cry out to God? What a crock! Do I even know how to pray? What would they do if I showed at that church on the corner? Would they kick me out? Everyone else has. Why not try it? What do I have to lose?
OK, Sunday morning! Get the kids up and start getting ready. We don't want to be late for Sunday School a third Sunday in a row! Can we stay home today? Not on your life. As long you live in this house, you will go to Sunday School, to worship, and you will sing the songs and listen to the sermon. God is important and we won't learn anything about him or grow closer to him staying home.
Which one most closely resembles how your Sundays go? I know, I know, you can think of an option that's not even remotely close to the ones I cited above. You can think of 10 options not like the ones above. Fine. What are your Sundays like? Is church a major part of your Sundays, and if it is, why is it? Is church important because you want to see friends? Does it make you feel good? Is worshiping God a crucial part of your life?
