Place seems a little quiet, HG must be doing chores & rest are either still in bed or gone to church. Morning sage. I'm sitting here enjoying my coffee before I head out to visit with my son for a couple hours. Seems as if Sundays are our time together. Enjoy your day |

In recent years the hypocricy I have witnessed among those who profess leadership has turned me off to wanting to keep myself involved. To many times I've walked into a church for spiritual nourishment only to walk out feeling spiritually exhausted. We are well past the sermons of fire and brimstone. People today need to be made to feel as if they still matter to God. Children today don't need to made to feel as if they are going to a burning hell. Most are already living in one. I agree. And I understand the spiritual exhaustion. Its what I often feel until I remember to turn to the one I worship The relationship each and every one of us has with our creator should be nourished, in my opinion, by the things we feel are important. part of that for me is always the music, which I guess I keep hunting for people to sing with. I woship musically on my own...but singing with others to God has always been a joy for my spirit. I'm enjoying this discussion with you. I have seen the worst of what people who represent God have to offer, but it doesn't change my view of Him...just makes my relationship with Him dearer. Nothing and nobody should ever take away from you or anyone else there desire and way of worship. I wrote a piece a while back and in that piece I added a stanza that decribes one of my places of worship. I'll paste that stanza here. Natures own form of music comes from the birds singing there praises to the God who provided all this beauty. I bow my head in silence adding my prayer of thanks. It's at that moment when I realize these mountains are my church, my cathedral, my place of worship. I love that! I wish I lived in the mountains or near the water..(Its 45 minutes away here)...I always feel at one with Him when I am at the beach |

I goofed!!! Sorry 'bout that.
I've been reading this thread and can certainly relate. Much as I don't like saying this, most people aren't going to church for the right reasons, anyway. That being said, we can get our spiritual food within the Scriptures, and as you said, singing praises. We just have to find our own way of being spiritually fulfilled and at times it's not easy. God is faithful, even when we aren't. |

God is faithful, even when we aren't. You're right Shadylady. I find that most people will attend a church because things in their life might not be going so well. I think most of us can say we have done that. For me, I tell myself that if I ever attend a religion again it is going to be because of my love for God. Not because someone says I should or because I have to. God don't want token worship. It has to come from the heart. |

Since the Broncos are out the nearest home team now is the Cards. Either way this should be a great game. Hope you have plenty of chips and dip. |
