Today I enjoyed walking to church - both morning and evening worship. It was nice to be able to take the time and enjoy the time I spent walking in God's beautiful creation. The thing that got my attention was that I didn't feel rushed. Yeah, I was running late, and yeah, I was still the first person in my SS class :), but aside from that it was nice to be able to enjoy life and not be so busy. I can't wait until it starts getting cooler (not cold, though!). It made me remember all the times I walked places in Uganda and how I wish we were able to do more walking in America. I think people who passed me thought I was a bit strange. We are so programed to think why would I walk if I have a car. I even had two people stop and ask me if I wanted a ride! I think living two blocks away from church will be a nice thing - I can walk most Sundays that are nice and if it happens to rain (or be too cold), I can drive. Which gives me the advantage over Uganda! There it was walk - rain or shine. :o)
Oh, I need to give credit where due for the pic of my church - thanks to whoever put it on our website!
