Get Up out the Pew!


So I had a long ride home from Charlotte, NC and the Lord always seems to speak to me when it's only me and the iPod. I kept flipping (or scrolling) back to this song and listening to the lyrics. The following are questions that started running through my head as I listened. Please take them for what they are worth. I just want to be open & real.
Where would Christ be if he was walking on earth today? Would He pull in to church late on Sunday morning because its Virginia Beach time? Would He put on a fake smile like everything is okay? Would He say all the right "Sunday school answers?" Would He mouth all the words of the latest worship tune? Would He be nodding off right next to you in our comfortable pews? Would He join us at our favorite restaurant promptly at 12:30? Would He put his Bible back up on the bookshelf till next week? Would He remember to say his prayers before meals & bed? Would He pass right on by all the hurting and broken people? ................................Just as I just did.
