What Really Matters

What Really Matters…
…what his hair looks like or how much he loves the Lord that saved him?
…the kind of clothes she wears or her deep need to be selflessly loved?
…how big an offering he can make or his obedience to God’s will?
…how well she can sing or how earnestly she longs for the Lord?

What Really Matters…
…that everyone has a soft seat to sit on or that all the seats are filled?
…that the music is what I like or my worship connects me to my God?
…that there were visitors this week or that people started following Jesus?
…that the messages are ‘good’ or that lives are forever changed?

It’s so easy for us to get off track, care about nonessentials and forget why we were created. Yet God calls us to focus on those things that really matter. Each of us must ask ourselves, “Are the things that matter to me and the things that matter to God really the same things?” What really matters to God is what I want to be all about.
