Starbucks - Anyone?

I attended a new church today.....and although we (kids and I) all agreed that it was not the church for us, I did take something away from the sermon.

Guess who is the rudest people at Starbucks. That's right Christians....and on Sunday Morning. 
I'm really upset that we as Christians have earned a reputation at restaurants and other establishments that we are one of the rudest customers.  Especially on Sunday's.  We should exemplify the very nature of Christ.  It is shameful to think that we have forgotten who we are....the light of the world. The voice of Christ, the living and breathing testimony of God. How dare us take the Word of God, 'in everything give thanks' and say to the person behind the counter, 'you are not worthy.'  We have adopted the world view of me first.  We can never shine the light if we are all about me.

I'm also changing the blog up.  I found that I was just writing the blog and not really reading what I was suppose to be reading.  Anyway, I'll post things as I see fit.  

Have a blessed week!!

Sensitive

Sometimes I wonder if I have lost my sensitivity to thing on heavenly things.  A good example was a coworker who was telling me that her house is not her forever home.  I just didn't think about heaven being my forever home and stated that there is not a house built in my town that is my forever home.

We as Christians must always be mindful of the view of heaven that God has prepared for us.  The streets of gold, beside a crystal sea and mansions made of precious stones.  God has only provided a glimpse of heaven but the truth is it is unimaginable to the human mind.

Have a blessed day!!!!
