PREPARED  

            True repentance hates the sin, and not merely the penalty; and it hates the sin most of all because it has discovered and felt God's love. -Taylor

2 Peter 3:9, The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

            GETTING UP and GETTING, READY to go to church involves a lot more than taking a shower and getting dressed. It involves more than shaving, putting makeup on, and doing your hair. It involves more than dusting your Bible off from where you laid it last Sunday after the service. It involves more than getting your best smile on or your best language geared up.

            Child of God, getting ready for church starts in the heart. It begins by understanding that we are unfit to come in God’s presence without repenting. God told Moses, “put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.” Moses could not come before God with an old dirty pair of sandals on, we surely must come to Him prepared to worship Him in Spirit and truth!

            Will you be prepared to worship Him this morning?
