I sat in Sunday School this morning not sure what I was going to "get out of it." I always seem to have this attitude that I cannot be taught, however, I was amazed at what I actually learned. At the end of our class, our teacher, showed us this video and it was just what I needed to hear.
The basic idea is this...
Think of your favorite football team. The quarter back calls everyone together and gives out the next play. They all call break and walk to the bench and sit there. A few minutes later, they come back and do the same thing again. They never actually play out the play that was called.
This is so much like our Christian life. Daily, we read instructions from the Bible, our playbook. We stand together in church, sunday school, or the like, hear the play and then "break." Instead of us living out the life changing truths that we have just heard, we go and sit on the bench. We come together in a week and do the same thing. Again and again we do this.We seem to never live out the playbook.
This is where I am. I go to church, I soak in what I need to and that's the end of it. I am sick of living this way. I am sick of hearing God's truths and turning my head the other way. It's not the kind of relationship I want with my Savior.
Is it the kind you want with your Savior?
