Saturday Night without hang-out is boring for other people. But for church people, satruday nights are preparations for the following day's worship service.
In high school, it used to be preparation of Sunday School lessons for kids and a material for the youth small group. But before that, joining praise and worship was fun and tiring. Fun because I enjoy music and my friends are around but is also tiring because it sometimes took the team to practice until late at night and the following day you had to wake up early. But I miss those days during my teen age years.
In college, it was quite the same except even when I transferred to another church. But since we were older, we sometimes did some errands in the mall after the practice and I remember one time watching movie but that was only once. And that wasn't good for it stole the heart's condition for the worship service the following day.
In the Bible when the Jews prepared for the Sabbath day it doesn't start in the morning but in the afternoon the day before. So I was thinking, why was that concept not practiced anymore because sad to say that there are lots of Christians that instead of preparing for the worship made themselves so tired even to wake up the following day which made a lot of people miss the worship service.
I wasn't an excuse because I was like that also some time in my life. Like now, it's Saturday and the streets of Tagaytay is crowded, I'm not sure for what reason. But during weekends, there are a lot of tourists in Tagaytay which made the streets crowded and caused traffic jam also. I'm just wondering how many among these people have their hearts prepared for tomorrow's worship or do they even plan to attend to one?!
How about you, how do you spend your Saturday night?
