COMMITMENT


Making a decision to serve God is not always easy. For one thing, many things in life pop up along the way making it harder to stay on track. For me, I have problems getting up on Sunday mornings if we have been to Little Rock for a concert and I don't get home until 2:00 AM and can't fall asleep until 5:00 AM. I want to be in church but physically I am exhausted and need the rest. The danger here is allowing that pattern to be an excuse for not attending church.

Probably the best way to serve God is to find a church that is caring and outgoing and has a place for you to serve. No task is too small. Perhaps it is a greeter at the front door or a person who counts the number of people in attendance. It doesn't mean that you have to be a teacher or someone who sings in front of church either alone or with another group. When God opens a door of opportunity follow His leading and you will experience joy as you serve Him. Make a commitment to seek His will and see where he leads you.
