Summer Vacations from God

Family relationships forged solely on earthly wants are a waste of eternal time. The first seems to be the lifestyle of the pagan outside of the body of Christ as expected. What is the shocker, is that this waste of time seems to have so suffused the USA church, that little difference can be discerned between the two groups. Lives centered around activities of self or self through child, wholly divorced from the believing community, inculcates a narcisism rather than Christ-like virtue. The gathering of the believing community becomes tertiary, boring, or a painful exercise lacking excitement found in the 'Halo' about the culture. No wonder, we as adults seem to have taught the young through our own self-indulgence. Save His grace, what consequences that come home to roost will not fill any particpant with the 'shalom' intended in this world or the next.
