We had our fall church picnic today. It is October, but it isn't really fall. It hit 92 again today. I arrived plenty early only to find everyone already eating. This is highly unusual since most of the time we eat an hour after the announced time. Then, while we ate store bought fried chicken, the guys were still grilling meat that, by the time it was ready, we were full. It's like they never did a picnic like this before, but they have been doing these picnics for many years.
There's not a lot to do besides eat and talk for people like me. I ate, chatted, walked around, ate some more, and I still left early. I'm not a volleyball player so there is not much activity for folks like me.
I almost did not go to the picnic today, but in the end I went. My life is no richer for having gone. We just had our home Bible study the night before so we had already spent time talking then. Oh well.
Not everyone from church was there, but there were a lot of people there today.
Tomorrow it's church again. I am ready to worship and to hear the Word preached.
One more thought. People like to talk about politics or sports or military service. But hardly ever do we talk about church or God or the Bible. Just saying.
