Who would have thought?
This week our family of churches have designated a time to pray. For people around the world. For people in Canada. And for people right here.
This year I have been working through the daily listings. I had forgotten how many people I know around the world. I had forgotten how quickly I had forgotten. I had forgotten but now I’m remembering.
So, for those around the world — may God give to you and yours a blessing of more of Him and more for Him.
Yesterday a group of us were having lunch.
I was asked if I was going to take Monday off. For years that has been a regular practice for preachers. Besides, it was the beginning of the week.
Or was it? One of the people around the table mentioned that Sunday should be the beginning of the week. If you consider that the Sabbath is Saturday, then I guess that would be true.
I wonder what it would be like to think of Sunday as the beginning of the week? For years I’ve always started fresh on Monday. I have this kind of perspective that says my adrenlin gets running. I sort through new adventures and plan for upcoming events on Monday.
But Sunday? Not much of a day of rest!
