It Is Strange Isn't It...
 Isn't it strange how a 20 dollar bill seems like such a large amount when you donate it to church, but such a small amount when you go shopping?  Isn't it strange how 2 hours seem so long when you're at church, and how short they seem when you're watching a good movie?  Isn't it strange that you can't find a word to say when you're praying but.. you have no trouble thinking what to talk about with a friend?  Isn't it strange how difficult and boring it is to read one chapter of the Bible but how easy it is to read 100 pages of a popular novel or ZANE GREY book?  Isn't it strange how everyone wants front-row-tickets to concerts or games but they do whatever is possible to sit at the last row in Church?  Isn't it strange how we need to know about an event for Church 2-3 weeks before the day so we can include it in our agenda, but we can adjust it for other events in the last minute?  Isn't it strange how difficult it is to learn a fact about God to share it with others; but how easy it is to learn, understand, extend and repeat gossip?  Isn't it strange how we believe everything that magazines and newspapers say but... we question the words in the Bible? Isn't it strange how everyone wants a place in heaven but... they don't want to believe, do, or say anything to get there?  Isn't it strange how we send jokes in e-mails and they are forwarded right away but when we are going to send messages about God, we think about it twice before we share it with others?  IT'S STRANGE ISN'T IT? Now that you've read this message, will you forward it to anybody that you consider a friend, family member or foe (enemy). If you choose not to share His message you may deprive yourself from being blessed as well as depriving others... who may need God in their life. |

it's the strangest thing I ever did see, what an awesome post, it shows me that I still have so much work to do in my relationship with God, but going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than parking your car in a garage makes you a mechanic
