The sermon on Sunday concerned Hiding from God. Of course, I skipped service that day. I still needed to listen to it since small group is tonight and we discuss the sermon, look at the related scripture etc. I must say - Mitchel Lee is one of the most outstanding preachers I've ever heard! Honestly! No Kidding! He is personable, educated, and usually dead-on target. But it is never "Hey look at me - I am doing it so right - you can too!" =- nope - his thread is always "Look at Jesus -he does it so right and covers you in your sin!". Glad I listened! I dont' know that I am hiding from God but I do think that I ignore Him. But it can't last long- the ignoring part. He has a wonderful way of showing up in life - specifically my life. Recently I have noticed that He just shows up - smile on His face - happy to see me and to re-assure me that He still loves me. No screaming that I missed church (again!) - no pouting that I am not spending time pouring over His scriptures. Nope, just a quick hug that says "I love you and miss you!".
thanks Jesus! em
