Holy is not how I begin to describe this last Sunday. After a world wind of getting children ready, myself ready, and dealing with a grumpy husband we were headed off to church, 1o minutes late of course!! My children have yet to become accustom to the nursery at church. So, I sit with them in their class so that they become settled and then attempt to leave.......peaceful you ask? NO!!! The kicking and screaming subsided after about 10 minutes. Momma Momma, Daddy Daddy.......RIDICULOUS!!! You would have thought I dropped them off at a concentration camp!!
So, I proceed to the sanctuary and find my place next to grumpy, I mean my husband. I try to enjoy the sermon.....please don't ask me what it was about. Apparently my job was to keep Matthew's eyes open. I jabbed him a number of times in the ribs, with dirty looks thrown at me as if I was doing something wrong!! I politely told him next time to stay HOME!!! My blood pressure this Sabbath was something unholy I am sure.
So, my question dear friends, is how to make your church morning run smoothly so that you don't have to ask forgiveness for the horrible thoughts that you have towards your family when you get to church!!!???
Until next Sunday......

Oh, I certainly don't know the answer to that question....Like the old saying goes, "The devil does his best work on Sunday."
I know he works over time at my house on Sunday.
I don't have any advice, just know that you are not alone.
And you know what Truvy says, "God doesn't care what church you go to, as long as you show up." ;)
I hope next Sunday is better.
God Bless,

Dare I say it...I actually hate Sundays. There, I said it. And yes, the devil works overtime on Sundays to make it that way! And to top it off, I am all alone in getting three kids and myself ready since Chris leaves about 7:30 to get ready for church service! There are days when I am seething by the time we get out the door. There is no great answer but I try to have as much done the night before as I can to make Sundays a little more enjoyable. At least, I know I'm not alone!
