Its sad to see that when we come to Gods house we think its just a facebook gathering with all our friends, people its more then that. Its so that we can get our message and our teaching that we were suppose to get that will strengthen us for our week, or maybe we needed to hear it cuz something happened that week and this was suppose to give us answers, or whatever it might of been cuz there is a thousand reasons why, (i could go on and on). Its not to goof around, talk, and make distractions. I understand that we are the body of Christ and because of that we are all friends and there is a time and a place for all that and its called ANYTIME before or after service not during. Some of us actually want to develop a better walk and relationship with our Father. But since you want to talk super loud, make jokes and make everyone laugh around you. It makes it hard for the people that are actually there to listen and grow, focuse and hear what exactly the Pastor is talking about. Ask yourself who are you that makes you so special that you can take away from someone elses time with God??…. Its ok I will wait while you answer… Exactly your no one, so why do it? So that you look cool infront of your friends? Thats pathetic if thats why because I promise you everyone around thinks other wise. To many times does this go on and its unsaid. Understand that Christ is not a joke, so don’t treat his house like one. I hear offering messages at least twice a week and in everyone we learn that offering doesn’t mean just your treasures but of your time and talents. And everyweek I see the offering bag empty, and I understand its hard times financially trust im going through it too, so why not give up your time. But please don’t take this the wrong way cuz just because you came and sat in a seat for an hour and a half doesn’t mean you gave your time actually listen and write down notes, close your mouth and open your ears. Its not that hard. If I’ve seen J-Highers do it I have complete faith you can too. So take out your pen and paper or your phone and take notes Its good stuff the pastor preaches you might want to review or go back to it one day in the future. Put if you do choose to use your phone be careful so that you dont get destracted by all your cool apps. Cuz its funny how you open up ever one thats in your phone except the actually one that can help you, its the one that should be under BIBLE.. Yeah that one, dont be scared to open it its good for you. I understand we are all human and we fall short, make mistakes, and just flat out mess up, but lets try to get deeper with our walk by actually taking time in service seriously. Its an everyday battle so lets strive to be better every single day not for ourselves but for the One that matters our One and Only God that sent His Son to die on the cross for our sins so that whoever believes in him shall not parrish but have eternal life with Him in heaven, I think he deserves at least that don’t you??
