It’s been a while since I wrote about going to church. Anyway, my hour-long class today only lasted 1/2 hour so I came back and felt like I should update. I joined a Christian fellowship in Bing called InterVarsity. It’s actually an international thing and the picture above is basically the logo and goal of InterVarsity. Since I’ve been at Bing, I’ve checked out two churches: Twin Orchard and UCCC. I liked UCCC more and the lead singer for worship was amazing man!
The first week of UCCC talked about baptism. That is something that is still far ahead in my future so I didn’t completely take full interest in the message, although it was educational. This previous Sunday’s message hit me though. The message talked about finding ourselves with God and where we stand with Him. It was a good message for both believers and non-believers. I felt like God was trying to put himself to work in us because I brought a non-believer friend to UCCC that week for the first time and the message hit dead-on. I found that pretty amazing. The message also reminded me that our walk with God is up to ourselves. If suddenly, there was no more church or no more Sunday services, it is still on us to keep our walk with God.
When I went the first week to UCCC, it wasn’t the message that hit me. It was something else. I saw a person in the front doing sign language to those who were mute or deaf. I also saw another person that was disabled at UCCC. Then, I started thinking to myself: What gives me the right to live without any disabilities? What gives me the right to be happy? I mean, when you see that disabled people still go to church and still have faith in God, that truly stands out.
