Isaiah 58:13
"If you keep your feet from breaking the Sabbath
and from doing as you please on my holy day,
if you call the Sabbath a delight
and the Lord 's holy day honorable,
and if you honor it by not going your own way
and not doing as you please or speaking idle words,

This verse teaches me to honor God's day. I'm reminded to worship God in spirit and in truth. To enter into His presence with thanksgiving. To do His perfect, pleasing and good will. Thank you Lord for your grace upon my life. You are good. DG

I call this GOD, good orderly directions. It is good to see these things in front of me, and make me take a look at my own life. I have some of these things memorized, but fail to act upon them in the appropriate manner as God will have me. I for one have made the choice of not attending church on Sundays. I always try and justify my actions to say that it is okay, When plainly enough God says forsake not to assemble yourselves together. I have become so stubborn about this until I feel that I am okay with it. I live with my sister right now, she is a faithful church goer. She is always trying to get me to go with her. I don't mind so much the going to church, I just don't want to be forced into it, because of somebody else's way of thinking and their own personal actions. I believe God gives us all a choice as to the things we do as believers

I admire your transparency. It is evident that God is speaking to you as you are reading His precious Word. God wants us to humble ourselves and you sound like a very humble person but did you ever think that maybe pride was stopping you from going to church with your sister. I mean if you go with her, it would be as if she helped you out spiritually and it takes humility to receive help especially from a family member. Maybe God is using your sister to speak to you. Also God can use you to be an encouragement to your sister. If you go to church with her that will give her the encouragement she needs to reach out to other even more. As I was just commenting on Jerry’s post it is hard to reach family. I would give my right arm to have a family member come to church with me. They have no idea how much joy that would bring me. Catherine be a blessing and an encouragement to your sister. Let her know that God can speak through her. She may seem like she has it all together on the outside but all of us carry pain in our hearts. Sometimes the hardest thing to give others close to us is to admit we need them. May God bless your humility and your family. May God’s favor be upon you always.

Catherine, ditto what Nancy said. Jesus said a prophet goes without honor in his own home town. Perhaps, ask God, is it rebellion against ANYONE telling me what to do, or would you be happier in another church. If you search your heart and truly want an answer from God and are willing to receive WHATEVER He says, He'll honor your request.

Catherine, as Nancy has said, I admirable for your transparency and what Donna has said, it might free you up to find a different church than where your sister attends. There is no such thing as a perfect church, purely because there are people there, and people mess up but if you could find a church that welcomes you and preaches the truth, which I'm sure you are able to determine, it might help. God bless you Catherine and do keep coming back to the Scripture Journal, for you are welcome here.
