Charles Stanley tells the story of a deacons’ meeting he attended as a young pastor. The meeting was divided over an issue that involved church business. Charles made the statement that they should stop the meeting and pray about a resolution. One of the deacons responded, “Leave the Lord out of it; this is business.”
Stanley asked, “Are we going to leave the Lord out of His business?”
And He said to them, “Why did you seek Me? Did you not know that I must be about My Father’s business?”
Anything that involves the church, the Gospel or believers is His business. We certainly need to be careful how we conduct His business.
Think about it.
