Do you like Sunday's? I do.
Good memories of Sunday.
The only time I haven't enjoyed a Sunday was during a season at Huntingdon - attending church but not connected to one. I think it was my freshman year. Sunday afternoons could be long and lonely. Even at Auburn. Why is that? I think because I'd spent my growing up years with a church family - though complaining about having to "go again" at night - as a child I complained or just didn't want to - as a teenager I quit questioning it. At age 16, when I was redeemed, I looked forward to going and having a purpose. Couldn't wait to share that purpose. I probably overshared it.
As an adult, well, I've loved Sundays - but probably were a bit stressful when the kids were all small. In fact, I know they were. I think I've blanked that part out. They were a LOT stressful and a lot of work.
I know that I really like them now. They are a bit of work - but just a smidgeon, having grandchildren close by - but now - well - I can count the costs and it's all worth it. It was then, I just couldn't see through the exhaustion.
Anyway - happy Sunday - I pray yours isn't lonely. I want for you to have a church family, if you are a believer. If you aren't a believer - in the Redeemer, the Savior, the Christ, the Son of God - if you haven't said yes to Him - if He hasn't breathed life into you, I pray He will. If you are even questioning that - then you can say yes to Him. He will give you life. He will give you living water - and the bread of life. Food for living.
Happy Sunday.
