i am wondering my sanity...

at the minute one wonders does easter finish when all the chockies are ate ? when the easter eggs are reduced stock in the shops... hmm me i was wondering about that... maybe they should a done royal weddin easter eggs....  are they keepin them till eastern orthodox easter?..

but then with high hopes of all the things i could be getting on with on an unwanted distraction to life of a public holiday i lays my head down and bang 5 hours is goned.....

i was asked yesterday two things in the shop ..... was i gonna watch the royal wedding .... and ....did i go to church on easter sunday... the person knew i had mentioned church previously.... the former got a bang of irritation..... and the second got a well it did strike a chord ... no i had not but i explained that i had gone on Good Friday which very nearly did not happen... the culture of our church though hmmm... many folks disappear to non-religious environmnets and there was a time when i found this surprising... i mean if one is not where one normally is then surely one can do the exciting thing of going to church where there is one nearby...well this isn't always what the doctor ordered... or the number of folks that don't come/go to chuirch cos they has visitors to take care of...  i never used to understand this ....

for me on this occasion it would have meant well a choice of a religious service or at least in theory a   church what would say it would feel akin to mine... neither of which i had any enthusiasm for i mean i am at that point where i am feeling i understand all that now... and it makes no odds somehow the folks is the same whether they is religious or say they is non religious .... it is nice to be around Spirit fille dpeople though simply cos they not only surprise me they look like they surprise themselves and that is fun ! i mean ministering to the stranger without the tickbox jargon and me at the back of my mind thinking but shall i tell them.... but the point is that GOD knows and that is all that matters!....   eother way i might have plummed for sneaking in the back somewhere and hidden in a cupboard or under a table and just flaked out out of sight out of mind and just whistfulled through the occasion....  now do you think that church mice and the like get a better life out of sneaking around undetected  within a church as opposed to relying totally on GOD in the wild? do you think that they sneaking in the crumbs under the table come out holier than thou... i think this is an important question cos if the answer is yes then we should really try harder to leave the doors open a little bit longer and it makes church somehow worthwhile...effort for the salvation of spiders deathwatch beetles and the like and other animals of course!

but hey me i wake up just as the house is emptying they has already given up on me which is a bit embarrassing and ... but i find some Blessed moments can the non religious ever quite get the Resurrection?....   well there it was ... well almost ... hand painted eastereggs and some chockies that was too early for and the Blessing of LOVE right there on the kitchen table .... and a smiling semblance of GOD IS IN THE HOUSE and is totally BEAUTIFUL and ALL LOVING i felt hujmbled...

later the socialities it takes an age to come to terms with choich i don't recall reference to Jesus somewhere maybe it's just a beautiful human to human time and a relaxing day some worship snuck in there somewhere....

GOD LOVES YOU TOO

GOD BLESS!

Peace and Love,
