Today’s Thought “Lethargy, A Silent Killer” G. Ward

“Now these were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so.” Acts 17:11

For many, being the church is short lived after service time is over (cf. Ezek.33:30-33). The preoccupation with selfish desires immediately takes hold; particularly so if the preacher was a little lengthy. Very little preparation is given the day before allowing enough rest enabling anticipation of worship. Therefore, exhaustion will soon miniscule the message. Moreover, awakening in just enough time for departure unto worship services disallows breakfast, so by mid-service I’m famished, precluding the sermon from being heard. Personal review of the Word of God taught isn’t necessary because he was coming “straight from the word” (as if the Devil can’t – Mt.4:1-11).

Ultimately, we’ll wonder why it is the world is so regressive. The answer is that too many are presumptive in “mustard seed” faith vs. personal growth.

Happy Monday!
