What Disturbs You Most?

  • A soul lost in hell - or a scratch on your new car?
  • Missing the worship service - or missing a day's work?
  • A sermon 10 minutes too long - or a lunch a half hour late?
  • A church not growing - or a garden not growing?
  • Your Bible being unopened - or your newspaper unread?
  • Your contribution decreasing - or your income decreasing?
  • Your children late for Bible class - or your children late for school?
  • The church work being neglected - or your work being neglected?
  • Missing a good Bible class - or missing a favorite TV program?
  • Low attendance at worship - or low attendance at the club meeting? (borrowed)

These are some areas we really need to be honest with ourselves about. I am afraid we are often worried about the last things rather than the first. Jesus said if we do not put Him first then we have no part with Him. Ask yourself each of these and make any necessary changes to save your soul. I'm working on several myself.
