Don't Miss God

Like many people, we look forward to connecting with God in church, and rightfully so. But flexibility can also provide some phenomenal experiences with God.

Today we had our church visit narrowed down to a few with early services, we were dressed and ready with a check partially written out in my wallet when the opportunity arose to help a young mother talk out some problems involving her family.

When we get sidetracked, a warmth overwhelms us that we are where God wants us at that moment. The really cool thing is never knowing when or where that might happen. Some memorable ones occurred in a supermarket parking lot, in a narthex while a service was going on, in jail, in a shelter, and at a check-out register. The connection in hospitals and funeral homes is always powerful.

Never miss church worship when you can be there, but stay prepared to be used by God everywhere you go.


Our prayer for God’s people –
Lord, we pray all are prepared to be Your servants wherever You may call us. Amen.
