Its Saturday morning 9am.
I am sitting in Church.
The soft lighting and the quiet grab hold of me.
My cell phone notification sound breaks the quiet.
It's my daily scripture from life Church Bible app.
It's significant.
My journey into the world as I have taken a break from all church involvement has taught me so much. I've learned about my inner strength and my potential to seriously up my relationship with God has been unleashed.
But this morning I was reminded that Church is important but definitely not everything. And I totally understand the scripture that flashed on my QHD screen this morning.
Here it is.
Jeremiah 23:24
New International Version
Who can hide in secret places so that I cannot see them?” declares the Lord. “Do not I fill heaven and earth?” declares the Lord.
I began to wonder.
I mean wonder as in feel the awesomeness.
God doesn't just sit in the shadows of the church.
He is everywhere.
Omnipotent.
And.
I've totally experienced that lately.
I have felt the power of God in magnificent measure.
The Lord has spoken to me today.
Urging me never to hide in the shadows in the Church. He urged me that getting amongst the mess of the world is vital.
I'm getting closer to being able to return to be a part of a church community once again. Maybe even pastor one once again.
But I feel the Lord has equipped me more than any other time as a Christian.
And.
To stand safe in his omnipotence.
