Have you ever attended a church for a couple of years and then for whatever reason you stop going as much? No one calls to check on you to see how you are doing, but they ask your husband; then, when you return to church, they all go, "oh, I miss you so much sister." I don't believe any of them for two reasons; one if you miss someone you find out what happened to them, you call and two, if you miss someone you ask whats been going on, is everything OK. Even if I decide not to give you any information, at least you make the effort to inquire. I attended this church before and the Pastor accidentally called me thinking he was calling someone else, twice and not one time asked me how I was doing. What's going on with the people of God. How can we go on from day to day and not care about each other. We are so busy getting our degree's (that's right I said it) and keeping up appearances from church to church that we forget to just care for each other. Church seems more like a day at the office; everyone smile at each other, but the only reason they are there is to collect a paycheck and then they are off to their own lives. Church shouldn't be like that, we should be more personal, we should be as close or more so than our immediate families. Then again, maybe it just depends on the church. Now, because so many people are sensitive to people being openly verbal about anything, I'm not knocking people going back to school at all, I think its wonderful, absolutely, but when are we going to be the helpers one of another that God requires us to be. You can't help someone when you are not available to them. Also, because of the computerized age we are in now, most people have become to lazy to make it personal. We text like we don't have mouths. I'm just saying.............
