Here I sit in the office on another Sunday morning...
I woke up just before 6am this morning, which in my opinion is way too early for anyone to wake up on a Sunday morning (whether or not you work at or attend a church).
I turned on the morning news, ground up some coffee beans, threw them in the brewer, popped in some toast, and sat back and just sort of collected myself...As I said, it was way too early.
The coffee was excellent! The toast was okay. The news, well, it was the news.
As I walked into the church, I just sort of felt like I'd rather be someplace else. You ever feel that way about church? Isn't it awful? I feel guilty about having those sort of thoughts about Sunday morning worship. But, that's how I feel this morning.
Don't get me wrong. I love the church. I love worshipping together as the Body of Christ on Sunday mornings. It's just...sometimes I just feel like staying at home or going to another church in another town where I can worship as someone who is not on the pastoral staff.
Maybe I just haven't had enough coffee yet...
This morning we continue our series on prayer. I'm not sure what Rusty has planned for the sermon. But, I know that people will leave encouraged and called to prayer. I think that's my big issue this morning...I need to pray!
