CRAVING

Remember the first time you got God?  The singing was amazing - the messages were amazing - your small group was amazing - the guy who handed out programs at the door every weekend was amazing.    But over time, God became ordinary to you, just like manna did to the children of Israel.  

That's our danger, isn't it?

Because the music hasn't changed - the messages haven't changed - the small group is still meeting - even the guy who hands out the programs at the door every weekend is still there ---- but you've grown tired of it all, bored with God.

'Don't lose your craving for God.'

That's why we say:
What if you came to GroupConnect - met some folks - started doing life together?
What if you went on a missions trip?
What if you came to Servolution and emptied your cup for somebody else?
What if you got in a men's small group - a women's small group?
What if you shared your faith with somebody far from God?
What if you served in H20 or in JourneyKids?

Because the longer we wait, the blander God gets.

Don't lose your craving for God.

Fulfillment - satisfaction - contentment - only comes thru Christ.  No other way.

What is on the altar of your life that you have such a hard time resisting?  You'll never know real satisfaction until you've put God there instead of that thing -- until you've tasted Jesus.

And be blessed.
