I was trying to get settled in church on Sunday….my coffee cup in one hand, my phone appropriately silenced (but let me check a few more times juuuuuust to be 100% sure), my purse filled with a million “just in case” comforts and my notebook and pen….now to find my husband who was already seated. I come sliding in during the second song and prepare my heart for worship.
Looking around I giggled realizing the similarities between church habits and travel habits. Some people travel very “smartly”. Matching bags, easy access, all the wheels spinning in the same direction. No snack bags or leaking water bottles. They walk on to a plane and sit down. They are prepared.
And then there are the rest of us! Ultimately, just as prepared – it just looks a little different!
What about in our walk with the Lord? Our attitudes and our habits? Do we prepare daily for the journey God has planned for each one of us?
Get your own seatbelt on first and get ready for take off!
“So prepare your minds for action and exercise self-control. Put all your hope in the gracious salvation that will come to you when Jesus Christ is revealed to the world.” I Peter 1:13
