You
may have heard of the mother who rebuked her boy for not attending church
willingly. She admonished him, “You go to the movies for entertainment, and you
go down to Freddy’s house and have a nice time. Now don’t you think it is only
right that once a week you should go to God’s House, just for one hour?”
The
boy thought it over and said, “But, Mom, what would you think if you were
invited to somebody’s house and every time you went, the fellow was never
there!”
I
think some people have quit attending worship services because they think God
is not there. He is. And not only is he there, but so are the others who have
gone on before us in the faith. You cannot see them, but they are there: 1 We are surrounded by
a great cloud of people whose lives tell us what faith means. So let us run the
race that is before us and never give up. We should remove from our lives
anything that would get in the way and the sin that so easily holds us back
(Heb. 12:1.) NCV
Assemble
with the church; God is there.
