THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!



















Each of you who left a comment on my last post touched my heart. I, too share both of those scenario's. I "love" church, yet there have been times when I have been terribly wounded there. Recently, God placed many in my path who have shared their pain. After praying about my own situations and many of theirs, I felt led to simply post the question, "What is church to you?" I had no idea what GOD was doing, but I knew I had to obey and post. Thankful is not a strong enough word! I know your comments moved mountains in many lives. Your honesty, love, and sincerity are sprinkled through each comment. Truly, the heart of GOD shined brightly! GOD BLESS each of you and thank you for taking the time to answer.

For anyone visiting who is not familiar with the last post, please go back and read it, taking time to soak and absorb each comment. You will be blessed by the many living vessels who allowed GOD to speak through them.

Blessed to be HIS,

Andrea

Thank you for your obedience. Sometimes the simplest question gets to the heart of our greatest issues and helps us pray for each other.

What a wonderful, thought-provoking post. I grew up in church, a Christian, and yet for many years fell "out of the habit" of going. Just one year ago, my adult sons and I started attending faithfully again. We have been blessed abundantly by the joy of worshiping the Lord! Now church has become a much-needed, eagerly awaited, spiritual "shot in the arm."

Hope more people feel that way these days!

GOD BLESS!

Sometimes we have to ask certain questions in order for us to get certain issues settled. Other times God is leading us to a higher level in our relationship.

I'm thankful that you were able to pray about this need.
