My Lord,

Good morning!  I love you. Church last night was good.  A bit confusing, but overall, very interesting.  As the group was commenting, I was reflecting on Revelation.  I'm grateful to you because I know that I would not have understood Daniel had I read it alone. 

I'm still amazed at how you've transformed my life.  I'm sitting in bible study twice a week and I so look forward to it.  I can't imagine how I'd be wasting my time on something of no importance if it were not for Church.  I know a lot of people don't go for various reasons, but like I told T, church is for you and God to connect, come together and build a stronger relationship. We were meant for fellowship and unity.  How can you utilize our spiritual gifts if we fail to show up for duty and how one can grow in Christ at home, alone, is beyond me.

The world does not believe that you will return and that they will have to give an account for the lives they're now leading.  They do not grasp the debt of your love and forgiveness.  They decline the invitation to come to you and receive the gift of eternal life.  Or even accept the fact that they don't have to do anything special to earn it. The Pastor on this morning's sermon said it so eloquently, "I'm not going to heaven because of who I am, I'm going to heaven because of who you are."  Yay for me, I'm going to heaven, I'm going to heaven!  If I were a little younger, I'd do cartwheels (lol)

Maybe I'll do just one to see if I've still got it :-)

Eternally yours
