I like the old story about the guy who came to church with his family.
As they were driving home afterwards he was complaining about
everything.
He said, “The music was too loud. The sermon was too long. The
announcements were unclear. The building was hot. The people were
un-friendly.”
He went on and on, complaining about virtually everything.
Finally, his very observant son said, “Dad, you’ve got to admit it
wasn’t a bad show for just a dollar.”
I hope the above story doesn’t apply to anyone in our church. We
don’t put on a show or performance.
We worship. With our voices, our talents, and our money.
That’s what He expects.
What do you do?
