God’s Cathedral

The greatest of cathedrals are not made by the hands of men, but by the very hand of God Himself.  In those cathedrals, you can go to pray and to listen to the sounds that are not sounds made by men.

If you listen very carefully, you may even hear the voice of God.

People often say that they can worship God anywhere; in the desert, by the sea, in the forest…  I happen to agree with them, for these are wonderful places to worship Him.  Surrounded by His awesome creation, taking it all in, it revives our spirit.

I can only think of one better place to worship God than in the midst of His creation, and that is in the midst of His people, for when we are in the midst of His people, we are not only surrounded by His handiwork, but we are also right in the midst of His purpose.

    Don – so true – today was one of those days for me. I can worship God from my living room today. I don’t feel like going to church. Well after all that is said, I miss the folks and yes – the imperfections of worship too. I miss the relationships that God has put in my life. God wants us to worship him in fellowship with other believers.

    Amen! Especially to the last part! Pax Christi

  3. I like that you can worship God anywhere but it’s easier for Believers to assemble themselves together and regularly in the Cathedrals built by man, especially when He had a special Temple built for Himself that He might be able to dwell among the people (Old Testament).
