Today’s Thought “Wintry Sunday” G. Ward

I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the Lord.” Psalm 122:1

We’re being teased in the Deep South for our approach to 2 to 4 inches of snow anticipated late this afternoon. For my friends exposed to several months of snow, it’s common sense for municipalities therein to invest in equipment that would aid citizen’s travel. However, the preparation here is with a different demand; when snow is said to be on its way, citizens are called to great action – Get to the grocery store and purchase high-caloric, poly-unsaturated foods. Can you say “LOCKDOWN”?

As a pastor, I’ll begin receiving telephone calls later this afternoon with inquiry on Sunday worship (that is, whether it will exist). Forecasts are with prognostications of cleared roads by Saturday. True worshippers sit on pins and needles, contemplating the horror of Sunday cancellation, others weren’t going anyhow…

Happy Friday! (Emmanuel, there will be church on Sunday!)
