Prayer

I've said on many occasions, as bad and evil as this world has become and as far as our Nation has drifted from its founding principles, it is little ole grannies on their knees before God Almighty that has prevented complete destruction.

But SOME, not all church goers who identify themselves as Christians unfortunately use prayer time as an occasion to GOSSIP. I believe God despises gossip. Its destructiveness cannot be measured. I myself have been described in the midst of such a group as having been "in and out of church." My friends have suffered the same. In my case the Lord told me not to bother offering a defense and I did not. I do not care what people think of me in or out of the church. They will have to answer for their spirit of gossip.

But it is things like this that people outside the flock see and satan uses it to keep them out. With the mega-church so prevalent, it's easy to assume that someone is not in church just because they haven't been there when YOU have. And here's a surprise. I don't think God gives out "browny points" for frequency of attendance. Lord forgive those and deliver them from the spirit of the Pharasee!
