BOB
Good morning! This is Bob Peden of Central - A United Methodist Community
in downtown Meridian. None of us likes to wait. We want things in a hurry.
More than a microwave world, we navigate a micro-second culture. We expect
fast results. A Google search across hundreds of thousands of documents takes
microseconds. When we need a solution to a problem, we expect the fix to be a
quick one.
This "get-it-quick" mentality permeates our approach to discipleship.
Unfortunately, the important things of life and discipleship take time. We grow
into them rather than just tacking them onto our busy lives. If we truly want to
be connected to God and to one another, we cannot just take a moment out of our
busy lives. Rather, we must change our lifestyles so that relationship with God
and others becomes our reason for living. This takes time. It takes an eternity.
But if we make that our priority, we will have eternity. Think on these things.
