something to ponder

A friend brought lunch to me today and we were talking about Christmas shopping. Her kids got her up at 3 am on Black Friday to take advantage of those bargains. She told me that someone who was standing near her in the line to pay asked if she'd get up that early to go to a church service. Answering honestly, she laughingly said, "no, probably not."
But it made her think.... "it's easy getting up in the wee hours to save 25% on some stupid gift, but getting up by 9 a.m. to make it to church on Sunday, now that's hard to do!"
