Rainy Days and Mondays

The cliche is that everybody hates Monday.  I may be weird, but I kinda like Monday.  Monday gives me time to reflect on the blessings of being with my church family on Sunday.  Monday gives me a chance to gather with my friends (and co-workers) in the office.  Monday in the office is good cause that means I am still employed!  This time of year, Monday means Monday Night Football (yipee!).  I like Monday…at least today.

Quiet, Please!

I always loved the old Art Linkletter broadcast segment called, “Kids Say the Darnedest Things.”  Children will surprise you with their observations.  The following story from Cramerton Baptist Church is a case in point.

As they were getting ready to go to “big church,” the Sunday school teacher decided to prepare her class for the upcoming worship service.  So she asked one of her brightest students, four year old Holly, “Why is it necessary to be quiet in church?”

Holly looked up and replied in complete sincerity, “Because people are sleeping.”
