Together with My Brothers and Sisters

Scripture: Acts 2: [46] Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts,

Observation: I go to a home fellowship on Wednesday nights, but several times I have made excuses why I wouldn’t be there. Instead of looking forward to being with God’s children I’d rather be home doing nothing. If I have an opportunity to miss church when I’m not serving I will take it. When I’m with my brethren I feel good and enjoy their company and grow closer to God and learn something I didn’t know, so why do I balk at opportunities to be together?

Application: I need to find more opportunities to be with other Christians. I should find other ministries to belong to and get off the couch. There is a men’s ministry on Monday nights that I should be going to but don’t and there are plenty of other ministries at our church and if there is one missing maybe I should be the one to start it. God said it is not good that man should be alone and I believe He was talking about more than being with a woman.

Prayer: Dear Lord give me the discipline to journey out beyond my comfort zone and get involved with your children. Help me grow into the man you desire me to be and not become stagnant as a Christian. Help me reach out to others and be more of a part of my church home.
