Lost???

I just finished reading "And the Shofar Blew" by Francine Rivers. She is the same author of "Redeeming Love". This was an incredible story of a pastor that LOST his way in Christ and did everything to glorify himself instead of Christ. That's all I'm going to say about the book b/c it's great and I hope you read. I don't want to ruin it for you.

Our sermon this morning was about people being LOST. Neal even talked about how people can wander off from their faith and get LOST and that as the Church it's our responsiblity to help people to find their way back. He even mentioned how it is possible for people to get lost in a church. I can honestly say I have been there and have seen others there. It's sad that people can get lost in all the programs, committees, and what nots within the church.

All this to say....I know God is speaking to me about this...I'm not sure what he is trying to say but I'm listening...ears wide open.

I've struggled with quite time and still do...I need you guys to hold me accountable...so I don't get LOST. Cleaning house, laundry, dishes, more laundry, sewing, errands....the list goes on but those are the distractions that we face on a daily basis. I know that things would just go smoother if I would just give God his time.
