I often wonder how blind can Church leaders be when they look at the decline of the Church populous! I mean the answers that I get when I address certain pastors about the “shrinkage” in America’s normally affluent growing churches. It as though they do not want o admit that there is a problem. It seems to me that as long as you look through a “tunnel” you will see only so far to the right or left. However, looking at the broad view of things you will notice a great deal of discouraged and faithless people wandering around aimlessly. They are seeking truth and comfort. Their eyes are open to “change” and their ears are clearly listening for a “call” to the “real” Gospel of Jesus Christ. That gospel that declares the obedience to God and the command to love your neighbor! Pastors are groping in the dark for answers when the answer is so clear to see. Not to overstate this, but the “World is Flat” and the internet has opened up vast communities of knowledge to help in repairing the breach. It is really dismal to read some of the statistics that are being broad casted over the internet. I have dialogued with some wonderful people about this and there is a real line of information that is being formed. Looking into the heart of God you see truth, hope, encouragement, love, and compassion. All these characteristics are placed in our lives that know Him! I pray thae we can all share these characteristics with this hurting world and those that are wandering about looking for what they do not see or hear!

I love people, and my heart cries out to God that we all can reach more for Him. Let’s stop playing church and all the political games that have are attached. Let us be simple and mend the broken hearted together!

My Heart To Yours

Dennis
