Sunday morning

Today I went back to the same cafe I went to last week, and was greeted by the same friendly waitress. I enjoyed some delicious guava juice (this stuff is amazing!) and breakfast, and thought about how the not-going-to-church crowd does Sunday morning. What if my Sundays involved the New York Times crossword puzzle, eggs, and friendly chats with strangers, rather than singing hymns in a pew? For me, it would be less meaningful, but breaking routine, slowing down, taking time to enjoy God's gifts (I'm telling you - go get some guava juice now), these too are important ways to observe Sabbath.
