Ever been invited to a wedding and you have to RSVP. Before you know it the wedding date is here and you forgot. You figure I’ll just go and surely, they’ll let me in. After all, I was invited. So, you clean yourself up and put on your best clothes. You look in the mirror and think, I look so good, there’s no way I’m not getting in. The wedding is at a beautiful gated private estate. You can’t wait to see what’s on the inside. This is going to be a special night and it cost you nothing. Then, there’s a problem. At the gate, they ask your name and tell you that you’re not on the list. You tell them, but I was invited. No matter how much you argue, they send you away, telling you that it was your responsibility to accept the invitation. That’s Heaven. God wants you there. He sent you the invitation. All you have to do is accept it. Not after you clean yourself up. Not when you “look” presentable, the way you think you’re expected to look. No, you have to accept before it’s too late. Otherwise, you’re not getting in. Don’t wait until it’s too late to respond.

Making time for God on Sunday morning is FANTASTIC! For our busy family, that was a MASSIVE step that took us over a decade to get in the habit of doing. Some of us took a lot longer than others 😉

If you have already been going to church on Sunday mornings then maybe the next step is to intentionally bring Jesus into the rest of your week too.

And if you are wanting to START with your Sunday morning being filled with Jesus first, the same as I was several years ago, start with prayer. Ask God where he wants you to go and be willing to listen and move your feet. If you truly want to build a relationship with Him, He will guide you.

I used to wonder why I cried every time I worshipped.

Nothing was wrong.
I wasn’t sad.
Sometimes I’d walk into church completely fine, the music would start, and suddenly tears were streaming down my face.

I thought, Why am I so emotional? 😭
But the closer I’ve gotten to God, the more I understand…

Sometimes your soul recognizes His presence before your mind can even put words to what you’re feeling.

Those tears aren’t always sadness.

Sometimes they’re surrender.
Sometimes they’re relief.
Sometimes they’re healing.
Sometimes they’re gratitude.
Sometimes it’s the weight you’ve been carrying finally falling at His feet.

There are moments during worship when I don’t even have a prayer.
I just cry.

Because when you’ve been through seasons where God was the ONLY reason you made it through, worship hits differently.

So if you’re the person crying during worship while everyone else seems perfectly fine…
Let the tears fall.
You don’t have to explain what happens in your heart when you’re in the presence of the One who knows every part of it. 🤍
