Sabbath Day

I don't know what it is about Sundays, but they have always been difficult for me. I wake up and it takes all I've got to get ready for church. I don't know why. The interesting thing is once I get to church, I'm so glad I went. A guy told a story today about how he almost drowned at a beach and a lifeguard had to save him. He said life is like that - you can't go out past the boundaries or you will get into trouble. There are lots of things we can drown from, drugs and alcohol, anger, passiveness. It was a great lesson. And of course my beautiful, wonderful children in Primary that I teach singing to made me feel God's presence. I'm facing a dilemma. I have been the primary chorister for almost 3 years and have asked to be released by the end of the year. It is the hardest calling I have ever had, but also the most rewarding. It is alot of work getting something ready each week and teaching the kids songs. Um, I don't read music, I don't play an instrument and I don't sing very well. But I love those kids and I know how to teach them to sing somehow. It has made me a better person. So as I was doing the dishes and singing a primary song I started to cry when I thought about being released. I feel like it's not time yet. But man, it's so much work! But man, I LOVE IT!! What to do??? Those kids teach me so much more than I teach them.
