>>Why Go To Church?


>>A Church goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and
complained
>>that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. 'I've gone
for 30
>>years now,' he wrote, 'and in that time I have heard something
like 3,000
>>sermons. But for the life of me, I can't remember a single one of
them.
>>So, I think I'm wasting my time and the pastors are wasting theirs
by
>>giving sermons at all.'
>>This started a real controversy in the 'Letters to the Editor'
column,
>>much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone
>>wrote this clincher:
>>'I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has
cooked some
>>32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu
>>for a single one of those meals. But I do know this.. They all
nourished
>>me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my wife had not
>>given me these meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I
>>had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead
>>today!' When you are DOWN to nothing.... God is UP to something!
Faith
>>sees the invisible, believes the incredible and receives the
impossible!
>>Thank God for our physical AND our spiritual nourishment!
>>All right, now that you're done reading, if you're of a mind,
send it on!
>>I think everyone should read this! 'When Satan is knocking at your
door,
>>simply say, 'Jesus, could you get that for me?
