Its 4 am, I really shouldn’t have worked out at 12 am. Not a good idea. I am just now getting tired. Good thing my church has a 1 pm service! Although, I will probably try to get to the 11:30 service.
I am so thankful for the church God has blessed me with (not only because of the late service)! Elevation is only a little over 2 years old, but is on a roll-coaster ride, called a God movement. The church is saturated with the Holy Spirit. Over 4,000 are now in attendance as God is using His body to reach a city for His sake. Over a thousand of these are new believers!! True church growth. God is touching thousands of lives through this local assembly of believers. I am just blessed and thankful to be a part of such a fellowship that is so involved in the community so that people far from God will be filled with life in Christ. (just felt like bragging on what God is doing through this local body of believers)
However, I have been a mere spectator too long. It is not enough to only give financially, but to give my time, to give myself. I recently signed up to volunteer at Elevation’s newest campus. I would hate to see my life go by and look back only to realize that I had missed it–this movement of God. Whenever God is at work, I want to be there! Seems pretty logical, right? I mean why would we not want to work alongside the God of the universe? It sounds like a no brainer, but too often I get caught up in my trivial life that I miss it! I let it pass me right by. I am only cheating myself. God wants me to experience it.
Too long have I been complacent. I don’t want my life just to be a normal one. I want to make a difference. I want to do something HUGE for God. I would hate for my life to fade away, not be used by God to do great things on His behalf. After all, God is the creator of this life.
Let God use you to do great things on his behalf. Don’t waste your life.
*hopefully this post flows in somewhat of a logical order, I mean it is 4:35 am now…so no telling.
