(Luke 6:46 KJV) And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?

1. We sing Sweet Hour of Prayer and are content with 5-10 minutes a day.

2. We sing Onward Christian Soldiers and wait to be drafted into His service.

3. We sing O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing and don't use the one we have.

4. We sing There Shall be Showers of Blessing but do not come when it rains.

5. We sing Blest Be the Tie That Binds and let the least little offense sever it.

6. We sing Serve the Lord With Gladness and gripe about all we have to do.

7. We sing I Love To Tell the Story and never mention it at all.

8. We sing We're Marching to Zion but fail to march to worship or school.

9. We sing Cast Thy Burden on the Lord and worry ourselves into a nervous breakdown.

10. We sing The Whole Wide World for Jesus and never invite our next-door neighbor.

11. We sing O Day of Rest and Gladness and wear ourselves on traveling, cutting grass or playing golf on Sunday.

12. We sing Throw Out the Lifeline and content ourselves with throwing out a fishing line.

Pastor's Comment: This is a discription of the modern day Christian. We have what I call a Burger King Religion, We want it now, we want it hot and our way. We fail to see that God tells us how He wants things done and that sometimes we must wait on the Lord.

Food for Thought:
John Wesley's Rule for Christian Living

Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever... You can!

Today you were in my thoughts and I prayed for you...
