How does God measure sincerity? Do we have to look sincere? What if we don’t look or act sincere? How does God measure this? I know that if you act grateful, soon you will be grateful. Maybe it works like that. One thing I know is true. We sincerely need God’s presence and assistance in this church plant. He is the motor, and the fuel that runs the motor. Without Him we are just a machine that doesn’t work. He is the air we breathe, and the wind in our sails. I sincerely believe this. I can relate to Moses’ prayer, and I paraphrase here, “If you don’t come with us, then let’s not do this anymore.” Exodus 33:15-23. Amazingly, God’s presence still shows up when His people sincerely desire it. But it shows up in varying degrees. I feel like a kid in the kitchen, looking for the dial. How do we crank it up?
