WORSHIP THAT PLEASES GOD

Tomorrow is Sunday. What will I wear? They must notice me tomorrow. They must know I have lot of clothes in my wardrobe. Hum mm. It's even a Thanksgiving Sundae. I cannot wear this... ermmmm.... OK .I'll wear this gown and this my heels will be a perfect match. My pastors must comment on this dressing. Mehn!!! I'll make sense tomorrow. I hope Bro. Ope and Pstr. Shadrach comes to church.. Sure they'll. THEY MUST.

Those were the words of an 18 yr old girl, Katherine. Her mum had called earlier to inform her of their early arrival at church the following day. She then made way to the wardrobe to select the gown and heels. Being the only daughter of her rich parents. Everything she wanted was to her grasp. She was cared for like no other.

The day finally came, Katherine and her parents got to church at exactly 8:30am. On getting to church, she entered the teens church and was disappointed at what she saw. She started counting.....1,2,3,4..........18. That was the number of persons she counted in the teens church. She said to herself "So it's only these 18 people that will see my cloth. Never!!! Where is Bro. Ope??? "I cant wear this cloth for nothing, It cnt be. She left immediately and stayed on the staircase leading to the church so as to be seen by people coming in.

At about 11:30am, she went back to the teens church and was a little encouraged seeing the crowd. She majestically walked in and almost all eyes were on her due to her noisy heels. As the sermon was going on, she didn't listen as she was consumed by her dressing. She was anxiously waiting for the thanksgiving section.

As the choristers were singing, Katherine was dancing uncontrollably. She wasn't dancing to the beat and tune of the songs but to her own self. Although asides her, some others danced because they were told to and because it's thanksgiving Sunday. All others danced because they were actually grateful to God.

LESSON #1- Do not dress to impress others or to oppress them. Dress moderately.

LESSON #2- God accepts thanks from a willing and pure heart irrespective of their background.

LESSON #3- Pride, there was a little showcase of pride in Katherine. Pride they say, goes before a fall even God said he hates pride. Proverbs 11:2

LESSON #4- Worship God in Spirit and in truth (John 4:24)

LESSON #5- Psalm 150:6....Remember, every living creature not every rich/poor creature.Thanks for ur time.Happy Sundae.
