--Secondhand Spirituality?"Draw near to God, and
He will draw near to you."
---James 4:8--Some of us have tried to have a daily quiet time and have not been successful. Others of us have a hard time concentrating. And all of us are busy. So rather than spend time with God, listening for His voice, we'll let others spend time with Him and then benefit from their experience. Let them tell us what God is saying. After all, isn't that why we pay prechers ?... If that is your approach, if your spiritual experiences are secondhand and not firsthand, I'd like to challenge you with this thought: Do you do that with other parts of your life ?... You don't do that with vacations....You don't do that with romance....You don't let someone eat on your behalf, do you ? [There are] certain things no one can do for you. And one of those is spending time with God.--  JUST LIKE JESUS --Max Lucado
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]
