The right people

Well today at "church" we talked about two of my all time favorite Bible stories. Jonathon and his armor bearer and Moses with Aaron and Hur. Both really good instances of God's people coming together.

That is something that has become very important to me. There are instances throughout history that God did something that was all on His own, pillar of fire, burning bush, those things. But more often we see God doing miracles through His people. I have seen people do things that are not normal, they are weird in a God way.

A point driven home in this mornings experience.

Who are the top five voices speaking in to your life?

When the right people, gather together for the right reasons, God shows up and the right things happen.

I believe one thing to remember is we have to be intentional about these relationships. We need to pray about them, that God would use our relationships. That we would not take them for granted, even when words might not be what we wanted to hear. Relationships require effort, pray God would give us the time to get together, to allow many opportunities, Facebook, twitter, or texting, to hear these voices. That God would open up our hearts to hear, and understand even the deep things of God.

The "Church" needs to realize that its not the building you meet in. The church is meeting all the time. When you get together at someones house, at the coffee shop, when you're shopping and run into a brother or sister in Christ. The "Church" is together.

More churches should push people out of the walls of buildings and into the world to meet. To be an example to our neighbors, to our friends, to the world. We do not hide our Christianity behind the walls of a building like it's some supernatural club.

Our church has a saying.....

We are spiritual contributors not spiritual consumers. The church does not exist for us. We are the church and we exist for the world.

Hope you all have a great week. Love- David.
