The Church is God’s
Filed under: Ron's Reflections

          Yesterday our Church had a Christmas program at two of the four services.  Attending those two services I felt God speaking to me again.  The music was uplifting and the stories of individual’s experiences with Christmas prayers were amazing.  I went home, ate lunch, visited with a person whose son died recently and made a hospital visit.  When all that was over, I came home to rest.  I even fell asleep in front of the television set.  (This is not new to me.)  After resting I got on the Church’s web site (offumc.org) and began to listen to the sermon that Phyllis (my spouse) preached at the other two services.  (She had a great sermon).         

      It is amazing to me that I am now a part of a church that has not only different styles of worship but offers many options.  This is hard for me because I cannot know everything that is happening.  That is a wonderful reminder to me that O’Fallon First United Methodist Church is not about me but about God.  That is a fact that I want to hold on to and continually meditate on.
