Micah 6:8
2 Timothy 4:1-5
Yes, your life matters.
Some of you are still sheltering in place, but fear not: I'm here to keep you sane and entertained.
One could hardly ask for much more than that, now could one?
Today in history really is one for celebration. On 02 October 1950, Charles M. Schulz's comic strip, Peanuts, was printed for the first time in 9 newspapers around the U.S.
If you've been in more than two church services in any one year, I'd be willing to bet you've heard a pastor use a Peanuts cartoon as a sermon illustration. Charles Schulz was a genius - even if that first strip didn't seem like it was really going where we all have seen it all end up. Still, we can recognize Charlie, even without his standard shirt, and we can see that he's the one who doesn't always know what's going on around him. He really is an everyman, isn't he?
Today is also World Card Making Day, probably not Charlie Brown's favorite day, unless someone finally would make him a card and he wouldn't be left with sarcasm as his only defense.
Keep Calm and Don't Stay Away.
I'll be back tomorrow.
