Recently it occurred to me how often we sit down as Christians at a dinner table and God isn't mentioned once. What are we talking about? What's more important that a Savior who gave up everything for us and continually pursues all of us in the hopes that we'll love Him back? What's more pressing than lost souls or hungry children? God's heart breaks every second for these things, but somehow we're too busy with carpools and perpetual dieting and what to buy so-and-so for his birthday that we forget to discuss things like poverty, injustice, or the fact that we live in a world where 50,000 people die daily having never heard of the name of Jesus. We're missing it! We are missing it. Is it possible that maybe it's time for a new dinner topic?
I hope that as you do life and community with those around you that you would have hard conversations and dig deep into the heart of God.
