I’m not the only one weary of ‘finding a church ?’ and giving up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then what ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many have given up on church—many of my friends—and Sunday has no meaning different from the other days.
Many families are left without spiritual leadership and direction, when the father and husband does not step up to his God-given place in the home (that the church had served, filled, before).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many have tasted the blessing of worshipping together as a family, with other families, and hearing simple, rich teaching from the Bible to satisfy their souls.
Then something went wrong, and they forever cannot fail to see the fallacies and pitfalls in every other church they might consider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
–<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Lord, give me wisdom to give a word of real encouragement to someone in that place.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
–<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Christians, Jesus Followers, we need each other—together.
If not in a ‘church’, then let’s get together in a home.
That’s how real church started at the start, at the beginning.
Let’s start over.
It’s time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
–<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And, God knows we need the break.
“The Sabbath (day of rest) was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.”
There is freedom in one care-free day spent with God with family and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Response :
“Struggling (weary) to keep working every day—can’t afford to skip a day every week, and not work.”
Dichotomy like tithing – is it a blessing, or “I can’t afford to tithe.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
–<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One Day
No Work.
No Plans.
No Rush.
No Worry.
No Hurry.
No Regret.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No Kidding.
No Excuses.
No Delay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nothing else to say.
