Today is another day given to us by our Creator. What are you going to do with it? What will I do with it? I will stand before the people of our Church and attempt to proclaim the gospel to the best of my ability. I will seek to do this in the power of the Holy Spirit of the Living God. My own efforts are futile at best.
As I think about desire, I wonder what kind of desire that we; God’s people, have for Him, His Word and His house. Now might be a good time to take a little inventory and see what our attitude toward the house of God is really. We say we love “our Church”; but, when it is time for you and I to be counted on are we even present and accounted for?
Look at Proverbs 18:1, “Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom. ” it is “desire” that causes us to set ourselves aside for what matters to us. The word “desire” here means a longing, a delight. I hope and pray that God will fill me with an unquenchable longing and delight for His house, His Word and His presence.
So, how are you doing?
