Want to be changed?

I have been doing some thinking about corporate worship. It really is the confluence of the means of grace. The perfect storm. The Word, prayer, the sacraments, silence, confession and assurance. God uses each of those individually to change us and grant us grace.

In corporate worship they all come together. So, should we expect to be "graced" on a Sunday morning? Should we expect to be transformed when we go to corporate worship? The answer is yes.

Now the question. Do you come expecting, asking to be changed to be more like Jesus during the hour? Have you given one thought or one word to the idea that the hour of worship is a confluence of His means of grace? Hmm...me neither. Not very often anyway.

Good news. Sunday is coming!
