Sunday is really one of my favorite days.
Why? Because I get a break from “reality.”
Truth be told: A Sunday church message will not get you through the next week.
What do I mean???? Just this. Many go to church on Sunday. That is their act of worship. But…honestly, is it really an act that makes a significant difference in a person’s life? Here’s what I mean.
I go to church on Sunday. Then on Monday…I’m ready to do all the bad things I must apologize for next Sunday. Does that sound like you? OK. I’m pretending a little. Truth be told. I’m not trying to do all the bad things that Satan wants me to do. But…like every other human being, I am tempted to do bad things.
Can I just say right this very second…. True Christianity. True belief in Jesus. True discipleship is not what I’ve illustrated above.
There is something I’ve learned. I’m reaching 40 soon. God doesn’t do grey. You are either hot or cold. There is no lukewarm. Grey is only for people who want to feel good about the bad things they are doing. You see…..the world is OK with grey. It’s OK with grey because true convictions in black and white are hard. Not too many people can be black or white.
So…lets rewind. Forget what I’ve said. Truth is…I don’t care if it is Sunday or Monday…Tuesday or Friday…there is one standard for the day. Forgive me for saying it, but…I and everybody else in this world have no excuse on any day of our brief life. God wants us to love Him and forsake the world. We can choose the world or Him. It is really that simple. If you choose unwisely…what do you think?
I know the answer.
