This morning, halfway through the Old Testament reading, I realised that folks' attention was on something else. We have two splendid clear glass windows behind the pulpit. Two deer were ambling past. So we paused for a moment to listen to God speaking through creation before returning to the Scripture.If only we could be so distracted by God in our everyday tasks.
You paused - that is so fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThat's what I love about worship at Inverkip - its often so spontaneous. And people let me off with the traditional in favour of the real:)
ReplyDeletesorry about that liz...my dad said maybe i shouldnt have pointed to the window so obviously...was funny to see ur face of confusion, lol!
ReplyDeleteRachel,

ReplyDeleteSo it was Rachel who spotted the deer. Way to go, Rachel!!
ReplyDeleteHope there are some deer for me next Sunday! I do love your windows and being able to see out on a Sunday morning. Reminds me of the church I used to visit on holiday when I was a wee girl.
ReplyDeleteIf you see anything interesting next week, Rachel, please point it out!
I only have students and the occasional lawn-mower outside our College Chapel windows. Deer would be fab.
