Finding A Church Home
Life style changes come when what you believe in your heart no longer matches how you live. Through the years I've always been in church, not as consistent as I should, but I've been there. Sitting/serving in church didn't move me to change everything all at once but it did allow a gradual change. We have to understand that not everyone drops their sinful ways as quickly as others. For some it takes a little longer to let go of bad habits/sinful ways. As a child I believed that "church" people were all good, I mean isn't that the reason they're in church? That was foolish/childish thinking on my part. "Church" people are just people who show up just to show up. I realize now that it is "spiritual" people who really seek to honor the word of God. They understand releasing/leaving the old man behind. They come seeking change and asking God to forgive them. I can say that I was one of the "church people". Back then I had no intention of changing completely. Church was on my "to do" list. At this time I'm not a member of a church but in my opinion I'm a better Christian, a more mature Christian than I ever was back then. Praying that anyone without a church home, including me, be lead to a church that feeds and nurtures its members. A place that encourages it's members to give their all. A place that builds from the "inside". A place that causes us to search our hearts with each step we take. A place where God's word overrides tradition/rituals. A place filled with the joy of the Lord. TeamSeekingAChurchHome. Bblessedloveyou
