Isn't It Strange

I recently read an e-mail that really was catchy and also with lots of truth in it that we could use to evaluate ourselves. Here is how it goes..........

Isn't it strange
how a 20 ringgit bill seems like such a large amount when you give it to church,
but such a small amount when you go shopping?

Isn't it strange
how 2 hours seem so long when you're at church,
and how short they seem when you're watching a good movie?

Isn't it strange
that you can't find a word to say when you're praying but..
you have no trouble thinking what to talk about with a friend?

Isn't it strange
how difficult and boring it is to read one chapter of the Bible but
how easy it is to read 100 pages of a popular novel or Stephenie Meyer book?

Isn't it strange
how everyone wants front-row-tickets to concerts or football games but
they do whatever is possible to sit at the last row in Church?

Isn't it strange
how we need to know about an event for Church 2-3 weeks
before the day so we can include it in our agenda,
but we can adjust it for other events in the last minute?

Isn't it strange
how difficult it is to learn a fact about God to share it with others
but how easy it is to learn, believe and repeat gossip?

Isn't it strange
how we believe everything that magazines and newspapers say but...
we question the words in the Bible?

If you are a person as described like the above statements, you seriously have a problem. Ask God to reveal Himself to you, which most often than not, He will answer your prayers. Your breakthrough and new beginning starts today. May God bless you with all the riches of heaven and may we continue to impact this world with the reality of the authentic gospel.

'WORDS OF FAITH'
For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace. (Romans 6:14 NKJV)

'WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT'
I'm not condemning you, just making you feel a little ashamed.
