Worship

"It is only when men begin to worship that they begin to grow."Calvin Coolidge

This has been very true in my life. I would go to church because it was the thing to do on Sundays. I could see my friends and talk about all the things that went on last week. I would get my weekly sermon in then I was good to go. Someone told me to look at my life and see if I was more holy than I was a year ago. I started looking at my life and did not see any growth because I was not truly worshiping God, I was going through the motions. That was three years ago and I thank God for what He is doing in my life. I like meeting my fellow Christians at church but my main reason for going is to praise and glorify God. When you go to church for that nothing else matters. It doesn't matter who is preaching, who is sitting next to me, what someone said about somebody, what somebody did to somebody, you get the idea. When we focus on God ,He will grow us, He will provide the increase. When you run into problems today focus on the only one that can truly help you, Jesus Christ. Don't make God a option in your life, make Him the reason for living.
