This past Sunday I found myself in my driveway shoveling snow. It really wasn't what I had envisioned when I finished writing my message on Thursday. As I continued to shovel my driveway my heart yearned with in me to be in corporate worship with my family of faith at LFCN. As I shoveled I made it a worship experience as I listened to praise music on my ipod. However, it wasn't quite the same. I feel sorry for those who don't have the opportunity to worship weekly with the people of God. I know that it isn't always easy, people are imperfect and the church is made up of people. When we put ourselves out their we run the risk of rejection, we run the risk of being misunderstood, and we run the risk of being disappointed. However, there is nothing like belonging to a family of faith that geniunely loves you celebrating our Great God with them weekly in corporate worship. Take it from someone who had a "drug" problem from birth..... mom and dad "drug" me to church everytime the doors opened. There's nothing like belonging and worshipping with the family of God.

As I write this blog post I am holding out hope that the prediction of snow for this weekend goes away.
