FOGGY SUNDAY

Well here I am at church on a foggy Sunday morning, roads were not too bad coming out this morning, although we do have freezing fog, but our parking lot still has a lot of ice patches that are not safe. So why am I telling you this? Because after I got out here, I was informed that we were not having church today because of the conditions. So, what's a preacher to do on Sunday morning when he is all dressed up and no place to go? Do I go back home, go to another church and listen to another preacher, it just seems weird. The churches in town cancelled Sunday school to give it more time to clear off, but when the ice gets some sun it will be worse.
I think that most people will not go today because the whole town lost power this morning, it's back on now, but a good excuse. Becky and I took our showers by candlelight, she is back at work again today. South Plains has been working around the clock since Thursday morning, she went to work at 7am Thursday and came home 7am Friday morning, slept for 3 hours and went back to work, came home at 10:30pm. Went back to work at 9:30am and came back home at 12:30am, and went back to work at 8am this morning. Since Thursday morning she has worked about 50 hours, but at least she got to come home and sleep. It's days like this that the linemen don't get paid enough, at least Becky gets to work inside the office, not out in the cold like the linemen.
So what should a preacher do on a Sunday when church has been cancelled?
