I notice that I never go to the dentist without first brushing and cleaning my teeth. I never go to the doctor without shower and clean clothes, under and over. But often, when I go to church I don’t bother to do much of anything. I sometimes look like I just got out of bed or finished a sweaty workout. Why? I say, “God loves me and does not care.” No doubt God loves me. My question is do I love God? Enough to take some time to be more presentable, to look at least as good as when I go to the doctor who does not love me, nor I the doctor? When I die, I will be buried in my Sunday best. Will that be the only time? Wonder if God will recognize me all dressed up? Come to think of it, I notice a few people coming to church looking much like I described myself. But not you, right?
