Pastor Wayne's World
We are in full crisis mode here at the office today. Today is August 29th and as the picture indicates on the “official” UMC Resource Calendar, today doesn’t exist. Here is the dilemma. If today doesn’t exist, I can’t really take the day off because the day doesn’t exist. You can’t take a day off from a day that isn’t there. I can’t come to work because, well, the day doesn’t exist so how can it be a workday? Were you able to follow that? This is after all the “official” UMC Resource Calendar. What is a person to do?
I sought out help from a good friend of mine and his advice was this “…apparently you live tomorrow today, then the next day tomorrow, and then Thursday you vanish.” He was sooo helpful! We come across issues like this every day in our lives. We seemingly make choices, some good, some bad, based on the most information that we can gather. We seek the advice of others, we check out resources, we pray, and we wait patiently for a reply from God.
Sometimes the answer is right in front of us. I looked at my “official” UMC Resource desk top calendar and there it is, today is Tuesday August 29, 2023! Crisis averted! Now we can get back to work, after all, it’s Charge Conference Season!
Be blessed today my friends!
