Why Go To Church?
A Church goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and
complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. "I've gone
for 30 years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard something
like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of me, I can't remember a single one of
them. So, I think I'm wasting my time and the pastors are wasting theirs by
giving sermons at all."
This started a real controversy in the "Letters to the Editor"
column, much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone
wrote this clincher:
"I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has cooked some
32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall t he entire menu for a
single one of those meals. But I do know this ... They all nourished me and
gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my wife had not given me these
meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I had not gone to church
for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!"
When you are DOWN to nothing.... God is UP to
something!
Faith sees the invisible, believes the incredible
and receives the impossible!
Thank God for our physical AND our spiritual nourishment!
When Satan is knocking at your door, simply say, "Jesus, could you get
that for me?"
