Reflection

CHEERIOS IN CHURCH,

KIDS ARE US

 A church that has Cheerios on the floor - especially in the front row - is a welcoming church.

Kids are us.

Parents aren't stupid.  When their kid starts crying - screaming - 97%  out of 100 times,  they get up and walk out to the back of the church and head for the nearest exit with their screaming kid.

Yet, they want their kids up front - so they can see it all - to provide eachng moments - hopefully for some good "Show and tell" moments.

Crying rooms are super - sometimes.

However, I see the whole church as a crying room.

Now that could be another meditation like this one.
