He Read All of These

I wonder what he thinks about Justin Bieber? Hmm...

If you asked me about my first memory of church, it was sitting in the pews next to my Dad (he insisted on making sure I was next to him in those days), and then watching this giant of a man approach the podium, open the hymnal, read out the number of the hymn we were about to sing, raise his huge arms, and say in a booming voice "Let us rise to sing this hymn!" Rarely did we ever sit down to sing a hymn; that never happened actually o_O LOL

Whenever I see him, whether it is on Sunday morning or during the week, I must have my handshaking hand ready and an answer for how your day/week is going ^_^ It's great to know people, who were around a block, to tell you things and keep you in check, much like him. I knew his family for as long as I was alive, and they are just as HIP as he is. I could see the bridge between the generations of his family, and while they are in different places they remain very close. Plus, there are great life lessons taught through the ages like God, love, respect, honour, sacrifice, and understanding; the focus in today's world is less about those things and what makes us happy, pop culture, and what Justin Bieber is having for lunch (Twitter).

I still see him from across the sanctuary, and we get the occasional hymn ^_^ Today's generation has a lot to learn, but if we were more receptive and had more people like my friend I would feel a little better about our future.

Hi, if you are reading this now, then that means I'm in big trouble come Sunday o_O LOL ^_^
