Day Seven-August 23
Happy Sunday everyone!
I don't know about you...but there are times when I get really excited that it's finally Sunday. I just need to be with my church family. Last week, we all got to celebrate and worship together; all 451 of us! I needed that. My soul needed that. Did you need that?
I will be going back to worship today in the same space that we all got to worship in last week. It will look different. A lot less decorations on the walls; less people in the auditorium. Absolutely no aliens in the baptistry. But I will walk in, and I already realize, I am glad to be there. Yes, it's almost completely different than a week ago...but my family is still there. My church family is still singing praises. My church family is still praying. My church family is still taking communion together. My church family is still very much present! And my church family is meeting all across the midwest, all across America, all across the world today even if I am not in the same room as them. And that just amazes me. Thank you Lord for giving us such an amazing gift: our church family!
It's easy to get caught up in what we don't have; what we are missing. But I urge you: today, next Wednesday, next Sunday, look at what you do have right in front of you in way of the Christian church family the Lord has placed you in right now. Maybe you feel very loved by your church family; maybe you feel forgotten or unseen by them. But you are there for a reason-I believe that with all of my heart-so what are you going to do? Why are you there? Who needs you there? Who needs to hear your story? Whose story do you need to listen to?
Let's never forget that one of the biggest blessings we have been given is our fellowship with other brothers and sisters in Christ. Go celebrate that blessing today! And know we at Rocketdyne MISS YOU ALREADY! We can't wait to have you join us again real soon. -Zac
24 Let us consider how we can stir up one another to love. Let us help one another to do good works. 25 And let us not give up meeting together. Some are in the habit of doing this. Instead, let us encourage one another with words of hope. Let us do this even more as you see Christ’s return approaching. Hebrews 10:24-25 (NIRV)
