Everybody has a good excuse for not attending church. If you take those excuses and apply them to other things we do (or don't do)...like eating...they might look like this list:
1.) I was forced to eat as a child.
2.) People who eat all the time are hypocrites; they aren't really hungry.
3.) There are so many different kinds of food, I can't decide what to eat.
4.) I used to eat, but I got bored and stopped.
5.) I only eat on special occasions, like Christmas and Easter.
6.) None of my friends will eat with me.
7.) I'll start eating when I get older.
8.) I don't really have time to eat.
9.) I don't believe that eating does anybody any good. It's just a crutch.
10.) Restaurants and grocery stores are only after your money.
Okay, so that sounds pretty silly, doesn't it?! Surely no one would be caught saying these statements about their physical body, yet so many show this attitude towards feeding their spirit. We must remember that it is just as important to feed that spirit man, as it is the carnal man.
