Get me to the church on time – or not...
Oliver Rice
“The trouble with punctuality is that nobody’s there to appreciate it.”
Does your church have a problem with punctuality? If it does, does it really matter if people don’t arrive in time for the beginning of the service? After all, there is no direct command in the Bible to “be punctual” or “be on time”, and it is not one of the nine “fruit of the Spirit” qualities in Galatians 5:22,23. Perhaps it is not very important after all, and we should all be quite relaxed about people arriving late.
Have you meditated on heaven lately? Try it!
Oliver Rice
‘Why are not our hearts continually set on heaven? … bathe yourself in heaven’s delights.’
Have you meditated on heaven recently? If not, why not?
