The front pew

I sit in the front pew...... not because I am trying to be seen
I sit in the front pew...... because nobody sits there
I sit in the front pew...... because I want to be a part of mass
I sit in the front pew...... because I get distracted easily and want to focus
I sit in the pew..... because the least I can give God is one hour
I sit in the pew..... because I need God's glory in my life
I sit in the pew..... as a sinner in need of God's love
I sit in the pew..... to feel God's mercy
I kneel in the pew..... out of reverence for God
I kneel in the pew..... to pray 
I kneel in the pew..... to worship
I kneel in the pew..... because I love God
I receive..... because Jesus said "Do this in remembrance of me" Lk 22:19
I receive..... because Jesus said "My flesh is true food, My blood is true drink" Jn 6:48-58
I receive.... because Jesus has the words of eternal life Jn 6:67-69
I receive.... because I want an intimate relationship with God


I came thru the desert
I saw the bad
I lived in the bad
I love the good
I cultivate the good
I live in the good

  1. I love to sit in the front pew myself. My attention is owed to HIM.
