Sunday where hearts are touched and hurts are healed. Sunday where all of us sinners are confronted with our own sinfulness and God’s good grace. Sunday where we get to commune with the Perfect Priest and have to commune with imperfect others. Sunday where we are reminded to forgive because we are forgiven. Sunday where we join with others in glorifying God. Sunday where the Scriptures rule over the secular. Sunday where flawed vessels present a Flawless Faith. Sunday where we retreat to revive for the rest of the week. Sunday that reminds us that all the other stuff worth going through is worth it. Sunday when it feels like Home. 

Sunday is still coming. Thank God for Sundays. It’s coming, so regardless of all the above do your best for His Glory Sunday!
