Do you ever find that you can be at church and all you can do is be critical? That is me to a tee. To my shame i spend way too much time being critical and not enough time worshipping God....
last night i was in church doing my normal thing, having negative thoughts about this and that and then it was like God said to me 'let it go Andy' - and reminded me why i was at church. It's not so i can critique the service, but more the spend time with Him.
Do you let the music, the welcome, the preacher, the money thing, the people, the colour of the chairs, the rubbish on the floor effect whether you worship God or not?
The truth is.... if we focus on people, the service, the music etc, sometimes we will be encouraged to worship, sometimes we won't. but if we focus on God.... we worship regardless.
So the challenge for me is this..... if the music sucks, let it go and worship God. If the expression and vibe of the service is dated, dorky, traditional, happy clappy or anything else in the long list i don't like... worship God.
If we only worship God when the music is good then we have missed the point. hasn't it got something to do with Jesus???
have you missed the point? i am working to fix this.
