Revelation 18:2b describes Babylon as "a hideout of demons and evil spirits, a nest for filthy buzzards, and a den for dreadful beasts."
I don't like that reputation in the church that I pastor.
Let me explain. For the third time in several months, a bat was "shown the door".
This time, like the first, it was the work of the laity.
The little furry critter (the bat) screemed as it was taken from its comfortable place by the foyer steps and placed on a tree in the front yard.
We didn't so much as give him the courtesy of a business meeting--although his (and his kind's) situation will be discussed on the board level this Wednesday.
"After this, I heard the sound of a vast crowd in heaven shouting, "Hallelujah!" (Rev. 19:1a)

Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.
Don't let yesterday's mistakes trouble you, nor tomorrow's fears spoil your day.
