tommorow: worship

This morning I looked down at my 3G phone and notices that my phone said the phrase tomorrow: worship. It was informing about church on Saturday and that I was scheduled to play, but it got my mind-a-thinkin'. I wonder sometimes if this isn't the current state of the church at large; tomorrow: worship. I recently was leading a life group we had at our church and we were discussing the message which was brought forth that night. It was coming from the story of Mary and Martha in which one sister just listened to Jesus and the other worked hard and became angry because she thought that her sister was being lazy. Anyways one of the questions was is listening to God a priority in your life? Almost everyone one of us (including me) said Yes but... and then an excuse that we are too busy for a simple time of listening to our heavenly father. I think that we as the church constantly push off things till the next day. bible reading, prayer time, you know what I mean; Tomorrow: worship. The problem though is that in doing this we push off the greatness that the modern church has been promising that we would become and still haven't delivered. Our issue is a lack of discipline in our lives. We push of our time with God day in and day out, until we get to church on Sunday morning and then wonder why we feel no genuine connection with God. We have to come back to priority 1 which is a true communion with God everyday. Then and only then will we reach our potential both individually and as a the kingdom of God. make it Today:worship, Today:God. Thanks for reading.
