He has an App. for that!

Come on, you've gotta' admit they are pretty clever. You know- Steve Jobs and the people at Apple. Love em' or leave em' the Apple products are sleek, stylish and sales for the iPhone number above 20 million. Pretty impressive! The familiar line you hear each time the iPhone is pitched on the tube is based on "applications" the phone offers. The announcer says, "we've got an app for that". The "apps", short for applications have been downloaded over 1 BILLION times. So what's the big deal? Apps range from GPS systems to silly sounds, games, books, sports, restaurants, you name it. The implication is that there is virtually nothing that one can't obtain from the app. store. Possibilities seem endless.

I got to thinkin' (love the grammar) that God is kinda' like the Apple Co. He is the CSO (Chief Spiritual Officer) overseeing the Kingdom of God. You can "connect" with Him anytime, (i-phone or not) and He offers Apps that actually serve a purpose. You can visit the store and download things that you won't find on the Apple App. store. Stuff like love, peace, joy, kindness, mercy, grace, forgiveness, power, wisdom, compassion, healing, reconciliation and salvation. You name it- He has an app for you and your life. The Bible says, "ask and it shall be given, seek and you shall find, knock and it will be opened unto you."

Don't get me wrong; personally I think the iPhone is an amazing device, even revolutionary. However; it can't compare with the eternal things that a loving God is awaiting for you to "app" (apply) to your life. He has an app that's out of this world! See ya' on the download.
