That Which is About Him

Tuesday, January 2, 2024

Sometimes people will say, "That was a great sermon" or "That was a great service." It's nice encouragement, but it's not the point. It's not about the sermon or service. It's what the sermon or service was about that matters. If the sermon was about Messiah, salvation, and lifting Him up- if He was the center and it was true- that's the point. It's about the reality of Him, even if the music bombs and the service was a disaster, it's a success if it's about Him. What's true for sermons and services is also true for your life. What matters about your life is that your life is about God, that your efforts and words are all focused on Him. It doesn't matter how successful you are in this world or how many problems or frustrations you have; it means nothing at the end. The only thing that matters is what makes your life a wonderful life- being focused and centered on Him to glorify Him. For the sermon, the walk, the heart, and the life that is all about Him... will be a wonderful one!
