Night blind

Acts 2:42-3 And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. And fear came upon every soul; and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles.

If something is important to you, you will make time for it, but if it is not important then we would rather do what is. Now each of us have different values and interests, these will depend on what is important for us, so if our children are important for example we will make time for them. If one was asked is Jesus Christ important, most Christians would answer ‘yes’, however because He is important does not necessary mean that we would make time.

So if one has to choose between Bible study or watching your favourite TV show as an example it would seem more people would choose the TV. In the same way if one has theatre tickets in the evening attendance is guaranteed, but if the same person was asked to come to a church a teaching event in the evening, the answer is usually ‘I do not go out at night’. What we then understand is that Jesus Christ is only important on a personal basis but His Church and its activities are not. Many people loose sight that the Church is the only place where we get to know and love Jesus Christ and for those who are trying to build the body of the Church it is sad that so many people do not see it as important. So all church events which often takes place in the homes of Believers should be supported because it is important for Jesus, so it should be important for you.

Be encouraged today to support your church and the events arranged.

PS:  I will be in Port Alfred from tomorrow and will be back on Tuesday

Point to ponder: We meet Jesus Christ in the fellowship of Believers.

Question to consider: Do you attend church events?
