Answering God – Day 16
Sometimes, because we have a truth to tell, we become over eager to share it and so cannot receive the truth others bring to us. At all times in all situations it is wise to ‘Always Listen First’
Answering God – Day 15
To worship God in our home language and with familiar traditions and rituals is something that has not always been possible for everyone should be a given. To be able to reach beyond the confines of our own language, culture and race and find the joy of the Gospel in someones else’s worship is a privilege.
Answering God – Day 14
Some Church meetings require us to listen more deeply (and for longer) than others. Not everyone will find themselves called to sit on Synods and Assemblies but all of use have a responsibility to understand their business and pray for their work
Answering God – Day 13
It may seem that the work of the Gospel may only go forward with the presence of a plethora of meetings.
Just because they are necessary it doesn’t mean that they have to be evil
Answering God – Day 12
Words are at the same time beautiful and ugly, creative and destructive and we must be careful how we use them. But how do we decided when to speak and when to be silent?
Answering God – Day 11
All of us desire our times of worship to be deep and intimate times of fellowship with God and each other yet we easily allow ourselves to get in the way of our own prayer.
Answering God – Day 10
We try to hide the fact that we are all a little bit broken but God has a way of finding us out and then it is only in the Church that we can find healing.
Answering God – Day 9
When we are hurt it is natural to hide. However when we meet with the church we have a chance to be healed.
Answering God – Day 8
Too often we come to worship with an agenda pre-written and we rarely come prepared to empty ourselves of all the confusion within us that God may replace the evil within us for good.
Answering God – Day 7
Wherever and however we worship we must be careful to not miss meeting God – being good stewards of corporate silence is one way to help us listen better.
