From Pastor B's desk..
This time of year I find I need to 'blow off steam' a little more than usual, so I'm sending this collection of church wisdom out to our cyber community to reflect upon during Advent and Christmas.
"Things I wish I had said"
Some of these are pretty profound regardless of your religious persuasion...
Some people are kind, polite and sweet-spirited - until you try to get into their pew. [George Goldtrap]
The good Lord didn't create anything without a purpose, but the fly comes close. [Mark Twain]
Most of us spend the first six days of the week sowing wild oats, then we go to church on Sunday and pray for a crop failure. [Fred Allen]
Do you know the three times that most people are in church? When they are hatched, matched and dispatched. [Lowell B. Yoder]
Quit griping about your church; if it were perfect, you couldn't belong. [Msgr. Joseph P. Dooley]
If a church wants a better pastor, it can get one by praying for the one it has. [Rev. Robert E. Harris]
A lot of church members who are singing "Standing On The Promises" are just sitting on the premises. [Sr. Monique Rysavy]
We were called to be witnesses, not lawyers. [Donna Maddux]
Every evening I turn my troubles over to God - He's going to be up all night anyway. [Donald J. Morgan]
I don't know why some people change churches - what difference does it make which one you stay home from? [Rev. Denny Brake]
If a Savior leaves you as you are and where you are, from what has He saved you? [Rev. Denny Brake]
Young man, the secret of my success is that at an early age I discovered I was not God. [Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.]
If your left hand doesn't know what your right hand is doing, you should consider running for a job in Washington. [Anon.]
To err is human; to blame it on somebody else is even more human. [John Nadeau]
Some minds are like concrete, thoroughly mixed up and permanently set. [Rev. Denny Brake]
Holy laughter is the sound of grace. [me]
Be well, be happy. God bless us all this Advent season.
