Getting Involved without an Invitation

There is an old adage that says "If you tend to your own business, then you won't have time to be in any one's business." The seasoned folk would tell you "Don't put your nose in places that it doesn't belong." Well I guess you get my point, last night we discussed the story of Aaron and Hur (Exodus 17) and how Hur (Thank God for a guy named Hur) moved without anyone having to ask or invite him to assist. He just saw that there was a need, and met it without hesitation.

Here is the question for the evening....why do we, as a body of Christ, hesitate getting involved with ministry until one is either begged or promised a title before service can be rendered unto the Lord? (Please take into account Romans 12:1 and 12: 3-8 while answering this question for tonight's BLOGPARTY).

Spiritual Connections

Last night we discussed "Spiritual Connections" and how they either impact or impede your life. The connection of a lamp to a dead outlet does not produce light...it does produce frustration. Our conversation centered around I Samuel 18, where Jonathan and David were "connected."

What are your thoughts on the connectivity of the church today. Why are we quick to connect to what is popular as opposed to what is right? And being connected does not always mean that it is the right connection.

Let's hear what your take is on Spiritual Connectivity.
