Haha it’s true He does say that! I just read Amos a few weeks ago – it’s so amazing about God’s heart and His heart for justice. Can’t take it out of the context though
“I can’t stand your religious meetings. I’m fed up with your conferences and conventions. I want nothing to do with your religion projects, your pretentious slogans and goals. I’m sick of your fund-raising schemes, your public relations and image making. I’ve had all I can take of your noisy ego-music. When was the last time you sang to me?
Do you know what I want? I want justice—oceans of it. I want fairness—rivers of it. That’s what I want. That’s all I want….” (Amos 5:21-24)
When I was a wee girl I thought it must be great to go to a “meeting”, not knowing what meetings actually were. Now? Not always such a fan!
If the meetings are meetings where there is unity, humility, and God is sought, good. If they are puffed up conferences with speakers trying to impress with their erudition, and the audience (me included) behaving mentally as a panel of judges, bad.
I like it! It does need some graphics though…
i’d buy one.
When it is religion, God feels that way.
When there is trust, and a sincere desire to thank Him and praise Him, then God doesn’t feel that way.
i’ll take six!
i don’t have time to make tees. but if someone will take it up and pay me a royalty for the ideas, let’s do it.

Because…? I think there’s some context missing…
Some context, courtesy of The Message…

Shelly just alerted me to this. I’m woefully behind in my Google Reader.
Adding an edit to my article.
Loving The Message’s version.

Great one!
I would wear this every day.
If you’re not up for making it, you should at least throw it up onto Spreadshirt (www.spreadshirt.com)
