This morning I have been working at a frantic pace on my Mac at my local Hardees restaurant. Since Wifi is such a premium (or just really hard to find) in our area, I gotta do what I can. The funny thing is, is that I am the youngest guy in the building by at least 30 years and most of the “regulars” have been giving me that look. You know the one, the one people give when someone passes gas and no one will fess up?
Exactly.
I appreciate my local Hardess for their chicken biscuits (better than Chic-Fil-A in my kinda humble opinion, no cursing at me) and for the Wifi. It’s good stuff. But I got to thinking about The Grove and how uncomfortable it would feel for people we met to feel like we (I) were looking at them like they passed gas.
That would stink. (Almost literally.)
So we are creating a culture where its understood that no perfect people are allowed. I think this is huge!
Since I’m not perfect and you’re not perfect, we’ll just accept it and try to become more like Jesus who was. That seems simple enough.
I hope it is.
Great point. We have a men’s group that meets on Tuesdays who are trying to say its O.K. to “stink” at our church.
