Excited Now

I returned to church tonight and I must admit it's been quite awhile. I didn't return to God because our relationship goes beyond the church doors, it is intimate so I don't need to wait for Friday night worship or Sunday morning service to praise God. After the giving was done the music ministry came and the director talked about how you can tell your child that you are going to chuckie cheese or six flags or for us closer to the north Cedar Pointe and how they get excited right then, they don't wait to get excited because they are already anticipating something great to come. What a joy it would be if we were already excited because we know as God's children something great is coming even if it's nothing but entering glory!!! How blessed we would be if we replaced our drinks or drugs, our happy pills with just God, how about we let the love of Jesus cure our pains or heal our hearts. What wouldn't God do to console our sorrow. Why isn't that enough to already be excited about. A wonderful thing Pastors wife said tonight as she reminded us all that we don't need applause, or to wait for others to say job well done. It's not our money or fame or lack thereof, it is only because God made the sacrifice of Jesus blood in order to exchange his coat of righteousness for our dirty one and that is enough to stay excited about. So as I blog don't ever confuse sadness for depression or tired for defeated because I know whose child I am and weeping don't last always; so I'm no longer waiting before I get excited about what God plans to come!!!! I'm excited NOW!!!!
