#ShelterInPlace

4/19/2020

One of the few things I love about the #ShelterInPlace is the stillness of Sunday mornings. No hustle and bustle to get out of the house.
No double-checking for forgotten phones, class workbooks or bibles.
Just stillness.
Awaking to gather to worship.
The boys huddled together listening to the sermon. Often humming the songs.
The eyes of my parents fixed on their own worship service, their minister, and their own fellowship announcements.
Then there’s us.
I usually join Victor midway through worship after my daily work calls. The information on the calls is generally worrisome but I leave it behind to go worship.
Sitting by his side.
Praying.
Singing.
Hoping.
Trusting.
It’s Sunday.
It’s quiet and reverent.
And while I desperately miss the fellow saints, I am enjoying these moments to pause and experience God in this way.

    Who's Shay?

    Picture
    Shay is a married, working mother of three boys whose interests range from politics to sports to cupcake tasting to classic television. She's seen every episode of "Friends" and "A Different World" and searches for "Law & Order" whenever she has the remote. Insightful and perplexed, Shay writes when her heart is full. Some are based on her Christian faith; others on her whimsical observations of life. The power of the pen gives her peace keeping her grounded in a challenging, overwhelming yet fulfilling world. All writings have copyright protection. Writings from a previous blog are being combined into this one.
