Heart Cry Gathering

• Don’t love the church because of what it does for you. Because sooner or later it won’t do enough.
• Don’t love the church because of a leader. Because human leaders are fallible and will let you down.
• Don’t love the church because of a program or a building or activities because all those things get old.
• Don’t love the church because of a certain group of friends because friendships change and people move.

Love the church because of who shed his blood to obtain the church. Love the church because of who the church belongs to. Love the church because of who the church worships. Love the church because you love Jesus Christ and his glory. Love the church because Jesus is worthy and faithful and true. Love the church because Jesus loves the church.

- This was written be Josh Harris and I was deeply convicted. Not that these are the reasons I go to church, but it seems like that is the way we set up church. To attract people in the wrong ways. The only way we can attract them, and keep them there is by the blood of Jesus Christ and His glory!!! God does it all, its not our planning and enthusiasm.
