Why Go to the Church?

A Churchgoer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained
that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. "I've gone and done it
for 30 long years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard something
like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of me, I can't remember a single one
of them. So, I think I'm wasting my time and the preachers are wasting
theirs too by giving lengthy sermons at all."

This started a real controversy in the "Letters to the Editor" column,
much to the delight the editor.

It went on for weeks until someone wrote this clincher:
"I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has cooked some
32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu for
a single one of those meals. But I do know this... They all nourished me
and gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my wife had not given
me these meals, I would be Physically de ad today. Likewise, if I had not
gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!" When
you are DOWN to nothing.... God is UP to something! Faith sees the
invisible, believes the incredible, and receives the impossible! Thank God
for our physical and our spiritual nourishment!

GOD BLESS.
