This Is My Party...

"Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always." - Psalm 105:4
It never fails. Each time we gather at church, whether it be in Sunday school or at the beginning of a church service, someone prays for God to show up. We constantly ask God to be with us, to show up, to move in a big way, but do we ever realize that God is already there? Every Sunday is God's party, and He invited you. He allows you to be a part of it.  He doesn't need to show up, He is already here. Stop asking and start expecting, He has already prepared everything for us...have faith and know that He will be there. "Look to the LORD and His strength...", that's a command to us, the verse doesn't say 'ask for the Lord to attend the service', or 'ask for the Lord to be with us', it says "Look to the Lord and His strength, SEEK His face always." We need to expect God each and every time we meet, because He is already there, waiting on us to attend His party.
