Sermon or Monologue

My pastor's sermon; is it a sermon or monologue?
What is a sermon? Is it the same as preaching? What does a pastor preach? His own words? If it were his own words, it would be a monologue, where no one as a say, where they are forced to listen to what a person is talking about.  A monologue is a conservation with oneself without any input or backing of outside sources like for example, an interjection or a disagreement.  No one in this world is forced to listen what they don't want to hear for this is the reason why free will exists; to do what we want to do, no matter the consequences that might follow. 
 
Pastor preaches God's word. but for what purpose? To edify, to build, to shape ones thinking. What I think or what you think is not applicable to God's will. In God's will there are no buts and no excuses; one must come out of comfort and face the reality that is life. Do you regard your time as precious and valuable? or do you just waste it like it has no purpose or end? 

The preaching of God's word is for us to put it into practice in our daily lives. If you don't, you are just wasting your time going to church on Sundays or any day of week that you go to church.  

A sermon to teach, while a monologue is to rant.

Negligence

How am I that God calls his own? Who am I that God came to this world in human form to suffer and ultimately  died for me? I haven't gone to church since this health crisis started back in March. I haven't opened my Bible since March. I can only go as far as God permits. He has control of everything that I do. If it wasn't for Him, I wouldn't be married now, there wouldn't a baby on the way.      For me to fall away as east is from the west, it only takes one choice. Everyday we make decisions and those decisions are what shapes us, for the better or for the worse; but in all of that, God is in control.     My life is hanging by a very thin thread and if I'm not careful, my life as I know it will be very chaotic. Right now, my life is going smooth, but bumpy  in a spiritual sense. Sometimes I ask myself when I will turn back to God. I've been very negligent when it comes to reading my Bible and attending church (I do say my prayers now and then). ...

Change

There comes a time in my life where i need to drop everything and face the truth, to face the truth that I myself can't help myself, that I need someone to be there for me, someone that gets what I'm going thru, someone that will love me just the way I am. God knows of my intentions and knows my heart, He knows what I long for, He knows of my struggles, He knows of my temptations, He knows the real me. God tells me, "Armando, dont rush into love, don't rush into a relationship, take it slow," but he knows how I am, He is the only person that can change who I am. Why am I saying this? Well there is no reason, i just wanted it to come out of my heart, all this feelings that i have all bottled up. Its very scary to have feelings and hide them, but they gain strength when they are bottled up inside. My heart aches for that person, but for now while i wait, it will ache to please God.
