The people are better than us

For some reason Blogger decided that spaces between the paragraphs of yesterdays post are at their discretion, not mine. Apologies for those offended by the drop in my usual aesthetically pleasing outlook. Hopefully it won't happen today...

Last night my church had a very short church service before we all went to the combined churches carols (about a block away).

As we were packing up after a bite-sized service, the family worker and i acknowledged that people in attendance were better than us.

Why?

Because we wouldn't have been there that evening.

Not for a 30 minute service.

Probably not for the carols either.

Both events were fine for what they were, just not catching enough to draw us away from family shindigs nor gloomy weather.

It's actually quite heartening. Ministering to a bunch of people who are remarkably faithful is nice.
