When my children were little I never let them sleep in church. There was always the hope that something the pastor said would soak into their little heads. Sometimes they say things now that make me think it possibly did, however neither one became truly saved until adulthood.
Ephesians 5:13-14 says, But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for it is light that makes everything visible. This is why it is said: "Wake up, O sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you."
Many are still asleep to the truth of the word of God, the dead spoken of here and many times over in the new testament is being spiritually dead. When we wake up to the calling of God by the Holy Spirit through salvation in Jesus Christ we hear, and see the word in a new light.
Have your eyes and ears been opened to the word or do you find yourself not wanting to hear it, read it or live it. If you find yourself in these words, perhaps you are asleep at the wheel of your life. Get to church and stay awake. Why? The Lord is calling! Listen and HE will tell you what to do.
