Seeking Jesus... Day 22 Sun. Sept. 23, 2012
Today I found myself doing something that I haven't done in a long time. During the sermon this morning in church I found myself opening up my bible and reading the sermon scripture during the sermon. Yes, I know that may sound bad. And I guess it is kinda... I just felt this morning like I needed to have my bible open and following along while the preacher was preaching. I think it was the Holy Spirit moving. I look back and think how many times have I just sat in church and listened. By opening the bible and reading the scripture, I was doing more. I was engaging the message and taking it all in. It's something that I need to do more. It's not enough to come to church on a Sunday and sit and listen. We need to process what we are hearing and apply that to our lives. That also means opening up the bible too on occasion..
