You know church- but do you know Jesus?


We know church
We can do church
In fact we can do it with our hands tied and our eyes blindfolded
How long have we been going to church?
How well can we sing the songs, quote the scriptures, stand and sit at the appropiate times?

But pushing that all aside how well do you know the King of Kings?
The Lord of all creation?

When is the last time we have sought his face?
Do you remember when you last had a hunger for him?
Do you remember when you sung that song to him and no one was there?
Do you remember what is was like when you worshiped and no one was there?

Go back and find that God
The God that you fell in love with in the first place.

Why do we continuously want to seek his hand if we don't want to seek his face?

Awake in me Oh Lord a fresh love for you
For it is when I seek your face
all things become second in my life.

"But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you." Matthew 6:33
