HOW WAS DINNER?
By John Kerr

            When the family gathered together for Jan’s mother’s memorial service, the ten of us that were there early went to supper together.  The restaurant set up a long table for all of us and one waitress took all of our orders.  She took my order third and I decided on the cod special.  They were busy that night so it took some time to get our meals.  We didn’t mind because we were there to take our time visiting with each other.  Everyone else finally got their meals but mine had not come yet.  I knew eventually that they had forgotten me - I had fallen through the eatery cracks.

            When the waitress came around and asked how dinner was, my son, Brian, pointed to me and said, “He doesn’t know.  You never brought his dinner out.”  Our waitress was apologetic and embarrassed and said she could have my dinner out soon.  I didn’t want it then, but was talked into it.  Then she came out and offered me a piece of pie as a peace offering.  It was the first time I had butterscotch pie in years.  It was really good.  And I had thoughts about God never leaving us or forgetting us.

            Matthew 10:29Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father.
            30But even the hairs of your head are all numbered.  31Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.
            Hebrews 13:5Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
            6So we can confidently say, “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?”

NAMBY-PAMBY - weak or indecisive.  I suppose the opposite would be nambo-rambo.

Come as you are and grow with us!
