This week’s FMF writing prompt is: CHURCH
GO.
I had surgery a couple weeks ago, and afterwards I saw the church.
We were so blessed with an abundance of food from believers near and far. Meal after meal was provided for our family; I just laid in bed and the food kept coming—not only from our immediate church family, but from others as well.
During this time when the practice of corporate worship looks much different than it did before COVID-19 came onto the scene, it’s been such a gift to see the the body of Christ “being the church” even when it might not involve a physical gathering in a physical building.
I’ve been so encouraged by the reminder that God will accomplish His purposes, and the furtherance of the kingdom will not be thwarted. He is still on the throne, and He is still coming soon.
Church may look different these days, but it doesn’t mean we can’t worship the one true King. It doesn’t mean we can’t shine His light in the darkness. It doesn’t mean we can’t serve one another in brotherly love.
Whatever your weekly corporate worship looks like these days, let’s not forget that the church is much more than a building. It’s a body.
STOP.

Church is not ome vast great hall
where you go to see the Christ,
and after it is over y’all
can get your coffee iced.
Church is not the folks around
you sitting in the pews,
though some of them are later found
upon the evening news.
Church is not sermon nor song,
nor praise, arms lifted high,
although for sure there’s nothing wrong
with that, it don’t apply,
for church is just God’s simple plan
for how to treat your fellow man.
This is wonderful Andrew and pretty much the direction I took today’s word prompt! Blessings
Amen! I confess to cherishing these times of community (or not) outside the walls of a building. Being in nature inspires me–and I’ve done a lot of that since March.
“Whatever your weekly corporate worship looks like these days, let’s not forget that the church is much more than a building. It’s a body”. Yes! So much truth in this.
Amen, to church being much more than a building.
Amen! The church is so much more than a building. As the church we are the body of Christ and his hands and feet here on earth.
Love,
Annie
