Some may think that I am a man of few words and some of you are now picking yourselves off the floor from laughing....the rest are just deers in the headlights, but one thing is for sure I am a blog novice, so here goes:
What stood out to me in this weeks reading is that we are ALL created, by God, to worship. With the trip to MJ's concert and seeing the lauding, adoration, and yes worship that is seen of the faces of those who were in attendance. They are not aware that they are worshiping but they were, none the less, Worshiping him. In the absence of God to worship we will, by our nature, find something, or someone, to worship, money, sports teams, movie stars, music stars, or Sponge Bob Square Pants.
As we go about our day let us always be mindful about who, or what, we are to be worshiping. When we have decisions to make, let us call on the one who made us. When we decide paper or plastic, let it be done to the glory of God, not the glory of Al Gore. Let us not worship the created things, but the Creator.
I am not a good, do with out kind of guy, but may be the chief of sinners when it comes to wanting "things". I believe that God has brought me into this season of my life to show me how much can be done without having things.
Lord may I learn this or any other lesson that You have for me, so I do not have to journey this way again.... Amen!!

Haha -- I'm not sure if laughed more at the reference to Al Gore or to SpongeBob. Or that terrific opening paragraph! Seriously, this is good stuff. Thanks for writing!
