Sunday – Rise and shine for this is the day the Lord has made.
Band practice – I go to church early and practice with the band for “I Heard the Bells on Christmas Eve.” Love the song. Love the band.
Sanctuary – I enter in as the worship team and choir invite me to join their songs of praise.
The Hallway – I see familiar faces. I hug, wave, smile. All of it is returned to me. I hear prayer requests I will remember. This is family. We share the joys and the heartaches.
Sunday school – I have always loved Sunday school since I was a little tot. I’ve learned so many lessons here. Bruce, our teacher, asks questions that make me think.
Home – Sweet William and I prepare a simple lunch, rest, relax, watch a funny movie, and nap on the couch. This is my day to refresh.
Back to church – The PraiseMakerZ present their Christmas musical/play. Brittney and her helpers have done a great job working with these rambunctious, precious children. They are well prepared as they sing and tell the story of Jesus. The scene with poodle skirts, leather jackets, and white t-shirts is my favorite.
Home again – It is warm and safe, filled with the stuff of my life.
Christmas Time – Joy to the world, the Lord has come! He has come into my heart, my home, my life. I love Sundays!
