I Don’t Always Understand God
This past week I had praying about what God wanted me to share this morning for the second Sunday morning worship experience of EdgePoint Church. We had started this series on “Edgepoint: Our Vision” to get things started. I was excited about speaking this morning because I felt like God was wanting me to speak about Jesus encounter with his disciples when He asked them who do people say that I am? And then he asks them who do you think that I am. And Peter impetuously answers Your are the Christ, the son of the living God.
I was excited because I felt like God was telling me to just read through the story and then share the historical background of the scripture and some keys thoughts from it that applies to the church. I could really sense God’s presence through the music worship and the prayers. But as I got up to speak all that I had thought about just went dead in my mind and my words. I was as if the Holy Spirit inside of me just stopped and refused to go any further.
I don’t understand all of God. I don’t really understand a little of him when you think about how huge he really is. I believe we did what God wanted done this morning. It was unconventional, but I have promised that this would not be your typical church. I think God was speaking to me that church is more than a sermon or song. Worship is more than an hour or so that we spend singing or listening to one person speak. But its about a life ( every aspect of life) focused and wasted on Him because he’s worth it.
