They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and fellowship, to the
breaking of bread and the prayers.
I appreciate so much those of you who take seriously your commitment to support the church
with your attendance--not only for those events that are appealing to you but every time the
doors are open. People who attend infrequently miss so much!
The church needs you and you need the church.
(Acts 2.42
NRSV)
I've known people to miss a very special event in the life of the church and they never are able
to understand the significance that event has for others in the fellowship. It might be a choir
cantata or a Lenten service, or it might simply be a regular Sunday morning service that
somehow God uses in a very special way to touch hearts. But they weren't there, and it is very
difficult to describe to them the wonder of it all.
Dear God, move me to church. Amen.
