The "no-excuse Sunday"
Recently, a church bulletin announced the "no-excuse Sunday"! It read: "To make it possible for everyone to attend church next week we're planning to have:
1) beds, for those who say Sunday is their only day for a lie-in
2) eye-drops, for those whose eyes are tired from watching too much television the night before
3) steel helmets, for those who say the roof will fall in if they go to church
4) blankets, for those who say the building is too cold and fans. for those who say it's too hot
5) hearing aids, for those who say the vicar isn't loud enough and ear plugs. for those who say he shouts too much
6) score cards, for those who like to count the hypocrites
7) relatives, for those who say Sunday is their only day to be with the family
8) lunch, for those who say they can't attend church and make dinner too
9) trees and grass, for those who say they "see God in nature" - especially golf courses!
10) Christmas poinsettias and Easter lilies, for those who wouldn't recognise the church without them."
Now listen to what David said about going to church: "I rejoiced with those who said to me, 'Let us go to the house of the Lord.' " Do you feel that way too? If so - see you there next Sunday!
