Sunday Mornings


For some reason, in which i hope to explain in this post, I do not want to go to a church where someone sees me.
It seems as if people look down on me becasue i do not attend church every sunday. I am tired of people checking up on me, to see if I have been to "church," lately. I just want to walk into church and be invisible, so that no one can see me. I will go when i want to. Just because I am not at church doesnt mean i dont think about God or fellowship with my friends. I can worship God in my car on the way to work and get my "fill," there. By the way i hate that term.
I havent been to church on a sunday morning for quite a while, and I am extremely happy. Ever since i moved to Rocklin, i have had a jaded view of the church, which I am still trying to figure out if that is valid.
Lately it has bothered me that there are some people out there, that are so sheltered only know one way to Glorify God, and there way is the right way. I am trying to find a place where i dont see those people, they tend to bring me down quite a bit.

You're a good man Tim. I completely know where you are coming from. I understand the importance of fellowship, don't get me wrong, but it seems that we get caught up in this idea that all church is, is this building we go to on Sunday mornings and thats it. Folks tend to ignore the hearts of those who don't go regularly and "backsliding" is how they describe them. Some of the most intimate moments I've had with God have been late in the evening at work.
Good blog man, I like.

Thought provoking...if I go to church and nobody notices me, I sometimes wonder what the point of being there was. I mean I know I'm supposed to go for God, and I do, but the community aspect of church is very important to me. There is something powerful and a group of people worshiping our Lord together. I just love it.I like that you think outside of the box.I appriciate that about you. However, worship doesn't just take place on sunday...it's life. I love that you worship God in your car.Praise Him!
