The words of this song spoke so deeply to me this morning,

Take Me to the King
Truth is I'm tired
Options are few
I'm trying to pray
But where are you?
I'm all churched out
Hurt and abused
I can't fake
What's left to do? In this season after serving a church for two years,we are looking around wondering what to do next? Going to another church that does not line up with our convictions? um NO we did that way too many times and we even served in one believing God had us there to help open up the Word to them. To help guide them to true discipleship. ( boy does that sound prideful) We want to serve God's people using the gifts of shepherding discipleship and teaching. Oh many churches would say come here or here because we "need" you. But do they really?? I have no desire to be a part of a church that people are checking their spiritual box every Sunday.Monday thru Saturday have no contact with each other. I have no desire to be a part of a church, as the new person I have to work and work to feel welcome and a part. Since when do guest in your "home" or " church body" have to make themselves feel welcome or a part?.. Thought it was our job to bring them in? Not "well you came to our church you have to make yourself a part", throw all the information of cell groups,bible school, bible studied, at you and if you do nothing with it "oh well, it's on you." ( yep I am ranting--- sorry) On to what this post is really about... Me/ Us. My heart is that God use me/us and I ask that He speak so clearly to Sam and I as we seek His face, His will for His glory! Solo para La Gloria de Dios, Angie
