This week we remembered the terrorist attacks on 9/11. I don’t know if you remember that day, but I do. Some of our most important buildings were hit by 4 airplanes that were attempting to destroy the fabric of our nation. Almost 3000 people died.
Do you remember what happened after those attacks? People started going to church, and praying. People were nice to each other again, and people were proud to be American. It was like things got better in America.
You know, we should be careful. We as Christians can do that too. Sometimes we have something tragic happen in our life and we get scared. So we start to pray more, and be more obedient. We start listening in church more, and we desire to be really good Christians. The problem with that is God wants us to be like that all the time, not just when something sad happens. If you are living like God doesn’t care what you are doing, than he will wake you up! However, you don’t want God to have to get your attention. He should already have it. Decide that you are going to be a great Christian because he died for you and loves you. Not because you are scared God is going to hurt you.
