A Reason to Gather

Sports Authority Field at Mile High, Denver, Colorado

Sports Authority Field at Mile High seats 76,125 people. Tickets to a Broncos game aren't cheap. There are no $4 Rock Pile tickets like there is for Colorado Rockies games. In fact there is nothing that you can buy at Sports Authority Field for under $4.

People will pay the price because they want to see the Broncos win. Granted there is a great deal of other activity that happens at a Broncos game. This picture was taken at halftime. It was military appreciate day. Soldiers lined the sidelines ready to receive the appreciation of the crowd.

Yet people wouldn't pay $100 a ticket to see the side shows. They come to watch football.

"Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the LORD, our Maker!" Psalm 95:6 English Standard Version

Why do we gather for worship?

There may be some people who come to a Broncos game to be seen, but they are by far the minority. May that also be said of those who come to God's house for worship.

May God's house be filled with those who are willing to bow down an kneel before the Lord, our Creator. And my the world see that it is for this purpose that we gather.

By the way, this day the Broncos won.
