Only in The Meadow?
We closed worship this morning at The Meadow with a Hank Willliams song, "I Saw The Light."
We had laughed with the children who all but mugged me for a container filled with Snickers, brought to me spontaneously by Alfonso during my time with the youngsters.
We had joked about the photo of a long-haired, 18-year-old Buzz thrown on the screen as part of my message.
After sharing the Word, the Bread, and the Cup, I left filled with the joy of the Spirit.
And I wonder: Does everyone have this much fun serving and worshipping the Lord?
To be sure, there are days when we all "bring the sacrifice of praise," in that we find it tough to get up, "go to church," serve, and worship. But days like today send those moments into the recesses of my memory.
I continuously thank God for allowing me the privilege of serving God's servants in The Meadow.
Grace and peace ...
