Who are we at church
Posted by admin on March 30th, 2008 filed in Faith, Healing, In VaneThis morning I had a conversation with a friend, we talked about how we need to be the same people in church or our synagogue’s as we are in public or at home. We were talking about how sometimes we can start acting one way when we’re with friends and another with other friends because we do not want them to change their opinion of us or we want them to think highly of us.
I have always acted the same way as I do at church, or home or when I am with some friends. It don’t matter to me, I would rather be me and not worry about friends becoming mad at me for being something I am not. I learned this lesson several years ago the hard way. I had a friend and because they were hard and difficult people, I tried to be like that to so I would fit in with that group. One day one of them told me you know, we don’t like you any more because your not being yourself. This was a painful lesson.
After this I decided to not be anyone but me, that it was okay and the only one I would change for is G-d. This has been a good thing because when G-d convicts me to change it easier to change and it ends up being a easier change, and a permanent change. I have heard sermons which have convicted me and after being convicted I tried changing… I have also learned when I try to change to make my Rabbi or Pastor happy it don’t work and the change is always surface.
Its like Branson private golf it a private thing between me and the L-rd and no one can cause a change in me but HIM or I.
