Get Off Your Knees

We are certainly to have only one God.

We are also to love Him (sacrifice ourselves to His will) with all we've got.

Frankly, anyone who won't "humble" themselves towards their Creator is either insane or a fool.

However, I doubt it is in his plan for us to live on bended knees "worshipping" Him. I especially get tired of modern "Christian" music where the words are mostly about "praising God" but seldom about sacrificial service to Him or to others.

Our knees will take us to God with our needs. The sweat of our brows will do His work on the earth.

If all those who claim to be Christian would spend less time in "worship" and more time in "work", the Gospel would be shared, the hungry would be fed and God's love would be realized in a real way throughout the world.

What if some of your children needed help? Would you rather have your other children on their knees worshipping you -- or out helping their brothers and sisters?
