I
don’t have much space to warn you but I want you to be aware of the danger
going on right now. As I write this zigzag scissors are cutting, glue sticks
are sticking, and paint & glitter are being applied to posters &
styrofoam decorations. It’s VBS season y’all! Watch out!
How
can you avoid getting sucked into the VBS vortex? Try this:
1.
If someone with paint on their clothes or glitter in their hair approaches you,
do not make eye contact. Look the other way!
2.
If someone asks you what you are doing this summer be sure to have a good
answer…something like “I’m terribly busy” will do!
3.
Prep your spouse for the danger as well. Too many unsuspecting people have
fallen into the VBS pit simply by being volunteered in absentia. “Thanks
darling!”
I
could continue but I think you get the point. So…save yourself! Save yourself!
It is TOO LATE for me. I’ve already been recruited. I’m on the team…but there
is still time for you to run the other way! Don’t look back…hurry!
Aggghhhhhhhh!
Okay,
church. That was my attempt at satire. Remember I’ve never claimed to be funny
or a good joke teller…but I do try! VBS, for me, is the greatest week of the
year for our church! If you can’t help we really do understand. Life is hard
and busy. But for the lucky ones who get to help…wow…what a blessing! Go VBS!
Join the team! [this post inspired by Jon Acuff]
