Skipping Monday

What if there were no more Mondays? This little bit is designed to bring you peace. It’s intent is to help you hang in there on Monday. Because while we don’t believe it is necessarily a sin to not stand in the pulpit every Sunday and preach, we do believe we need more not less men who present God’s Truths faithfully, lovingly, and passionately. 

Wouldn’t it be nice if there were no more Mondays? No more of those days where you were down and discouraged following a disappointing Sunday? No more days where you feel hungover from a dispiriting decision from Sunday. No more days where Sunday’s come at such speed your week feels like Sunday, Monday, Sunday. No more days where you are haunted by your own shortcomings. No more days when a call comes to inform you of your mistakes on Sunday. No more days with the lingering regret of what you said or did not say on Sunday. No more days where a power struggle in the structure of the local church has you wondering about your immediate future. No more Mondays when you’re feeling like you want to toss in the towel. 

Wouldn’t it be nice if there are no more Mondays?

Yet, we preach because there are Mondays. We preach because we are going to a place where there will be no more Mondays. Until then consider what our Lord might say about this: In the world you will have Mondays, but be of good cheer, I have overcome Mondays!

“I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world” - What Jesus actually said in John 16:33
