Somebody sent me this list and I laughed at a few of the points. Then I realized I laughed because they are true.
~ You hesitate to tell people what you do for a living.
~ You've ever dreamed you were preaching only to awaken and discover you were.
~ You've ever wondered why people couldn't die at more appropriate times.
~ You find yourself counting people at a sporting event.
~ You're leading the church into the 21st century, but you don't know what you're preaching on Sunday.
~ A church picnic is no picnic.
~ You jiggle all the commode handles at the church before you leave.
~ People sleep while you're talking.
~ You've ever wanted to "lay hands" around a deacon's neck.
~ You often feel like you're herding cats rather than shepherding sheep.
.
Something to aspire to.
ReplyDeleteOkay I was laughing at that. I can't tell if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGuilty of some, my time will come for others.
ReplyDeleteI mis-read the one about laying hands.....
