Sowing the Seed

The Church spends so much time trying to get people to come to church. We create programs to appease all comers. We want everyone to come to us, don't get me wrong, coming to church is a good thing. But, I wonder if we have it a little wrong? Jesus didn't hide in the Temple and throw stones at people as they went by, He went TO THE PEOPLE. Jesus talked to people He was culturally not supposed to, He ate dinner at shady men's homes and told everyone the Gospel. Let us today be more consumed with telling someone the Gospel, showing someone the Gospel, loving our fellow man more than ourselves and take the Gospel to the streets. Church, we must stop thinking everyone needs to come be like us! We are called and commanded to go (Mark 16:15) and sow the seed. We will reap what we sow. If we sow church and programs we will reap more programs and church activities. Let's sow the Gospel and watch God do what only He can do!!!
