How to mess up Christmas Eve

litlover12I've been having some issues with my church lately. My parents have been having some issues with their church as well. So we decided to try Christmas Eve service at a small church a few minutes away.
It stank on ice.
Honestly, it was just awful. I don't mean to be unkind or persnickety (it's supposed to be about God and not our own preferences, after all), but the experience was so bad in every respect -- music, sermon, even the children's lesson -- we sneaked out the back before they were done!
The nice thing was, it made our own churches look a little better. I swear I could almost feel God tapping me on the shoulder and murmuring, "Maybe the situation at ___ isn't quite as desperate as you thought, hmm?"
Well, anyway . . . a very merry Christmas to you all, my friends. I'm blessed and grateful to have you in my life, and I wish you all the best!
