I dreamed an interesting dream. I dreamt that I was at a conference in Prescott. Pastor Mitchell was leading the service. It was a full house with people in every seat. Before the service officially began pastor Mitchell came to the pulpit and made an interesting announcement.
I want everyone sitting in the front row to trade places with the people sitting on the back row. Then I want everyone on the left side to trade places with the people on the right side. It took a while to happen but finally everyone was sitting in their new place.
What was interesting to me was how some people were happy and excited to trade places, but others were sullen and morose. People get so attached to their seat. Woe to any visitor who dares to sit in their place.
Would a pastor actually have people change seats like this? I have seen it and you probably have too.
"Now He did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief." Mat.13:58
When we focus more on where we sit than on why we're there we run the risk of not seeing God work among us.
Anyway, it was just a dream.
