Why do we often equate our relationship with God with the circumstances that surround us? What do they have in common, are they intertwined? Why do we often find ourselves taking things out on God when He is the only surety in our life that won’t let us down?
If we are dissatisfied with our relationship with God it’s only our fault. It really has nothing to do with the preacher, the church, the people, or any other circumstances. We can't point fingers and say this is wrong and that is right and how come we are taught this and not taught that.
Its our responsibility to engage intimacy with our friend, if we aren't pulling up a chair to the table and conversing with God that is no ones problem, but our own. God is not limited to the church we go to. His presence expands far beyond the reach of those doors.
If we find ourselves malnutrition and not getting enough from church then its because we are only eating 2 or 3 times a week. If we want to know more of God then we need to pick up the Word. Could it be possible that we have a mistaken identity crisis? Are we so conditioned to associating ourselves with church that we forget who it is that we serve? Our identity is not in an organization, or a labeled religion but or identity is in the name of Jesus. Its not limited to brick or mortar. And that is what makes the body of Christ indestructable. The ball is in our court, if we want more of God...well then get more.
