Shedding Some Light

Anticipation


At the Kansas District LWML convention in Salina one spring, we celebrated Easter all weekend. He is risen! and He is risen indeed! rang out with regularity.


During one of the weekend’s sermons, a pastor was talking about Paul’s letters to various congregations, encouraging them, chiding them, and giving thanks for them. I was sitting beside a woman who was studying intently her convention notes. “And to think,” the pastor said forcefully, “Paul writes most of these letters when he’s in prison!


“He is risen indeed!” shouted the woman beside me.

Just-in-Time Delivery


“Where is my Sunday paper?” the irate caller demanded on a bright weekend morning.


“Sir,” replied the newspaper employee, “today is Saturday. Our Sunday paper is not delivered until tomorrow, on Sunday.”


A long pause ensued, followed by a ray of recognition. “Oh, so that’s why no one was at church today!”
