It's also a treasure trove of holy moments!
Tom and I were only going to dart in after church for a few groceries. We both had projects waiting at home, so we split up to finish faster.  What was I thinking? Granddaughters in tow. The first day of "tax-free" school shopping. Peak shopping hours.
It really did seem like a good plan to shop for the church school supply drive. Except for one little detail...  Seriously, I really wasn't looking for trouble. Why would I? Not with the cushy job I had. Sure, it came with a little stress, what job doesn't? But I'd worked hard to get to where I was. I wasn't look for a change of scene. (Text based on the Old Testament account of Nehemiah's story)
 I really wanted to be an athlete when I was a kid. And I worked at it as hard as I could. Even the PE teacher said I was doing everything right when it came to basketball.
Effort and perseverance weren't enough. Failure and injuries were compounded by the rejection of peers who seemingly chose everyone else for their playground teams before me.  ...bathroom! What? No, Dear Reader, we're not fixing to get weird.
But, have you noticed a lot of Scriptures referring to cleansing? From Genesis to Revelation we're told about the importance of being clean, inside and out.  My sister beautifully embroidered set of pillowcases for me recently. I just love new pillowcases, that quiet rustle when I lay my head down, the slightly scratchy feel on my cheek, and the clean smell of cotton.
