After the irritating hours of Saturday – Lost Wallet! Golfer’s Elbow! Continued pain! Buying an elbow brace! – I had a wonderful surprise today in church. I was a few minutes late and so had to wait at the back until the handbell choir was done. (Our church has such a nice custom of not letting people move down the aisles while a choir or soloist is performing. You have to wait until it ends.) I had to nip halfway up to the front past my usual spot to find a place. Later, when I got up to greet those seated around me during the “handshake” portion of our Baptist service I turned around and saw behind me a friend I’d been trying to reach for two years.
Joy abounds.
