Today's sermon at church was awesome! On our church's sign outside it reads, "eat your vegetables," and we were all wondering what Pastor Dan meant by that. Well, that's what his sermon was all about this morning. He asked us to raise our hands if our parents or grandparents ever told us when we were little to eat our vegetables because they're good for us. Hands went up and he explained to us how he thought his grandmother loved him until she put nasty bushell sprouts on his plate as a child, and we all laughed. He told us even his wife "nags I mean fusses" at him to eat his vegetables (his wife wasn't in there and he told us, "just like Las Vegas, what's said in this church, stays in this church" lol). But he told us how when our parents and/or grandparents tell us to eat our vegetables, they say that because they love us and because vegetables are good for us. The same with God and church. Without either one, we don't feel well. Not sick, but empty. Without God in our lives, we're lost and empty.
Last week's sermon was good as well. Pastor Dan compared our relationship with God to spelling. If we don't start off spelling with the correct letter, we'll never spell it correct. It'll be a whole different word. Just like our relationship with God. If we skip steps to reach Him, or if we don't come to Him first, it's all wrong. It's not the same at all if we don't spell with the correct letter or come to God FIRST with our problems. He should always be the first one we go to; not second, not third, FIRST.
Proverbs 3:3: "Let love and faithfulness never leave you …write them on the tablet of your heart."
