Shirking Responsibility

I have to admit it - I have been remiss in my blogging today. Instead I spent the day cleaning the house, playing with my kid, and reading a book - not necessarily in that order. So, in order to compensate for my lackadaisical mentality I thought I would give you a tip for when you go out to eat on Sunday.

I found this blog post on a friend of a friend's site. He talks about what a horrible witness we Christians can be immediately after we scramble out the sanctuary doors on Sunday. I didn't feel very convicted by this because I'm too poor to eat out on Sunday (or any other day of the week) right now. I will, however, be thinking about it next time I walk through the doors of a restaurant on Sunday.

Besides, I have had enough friends who have been servers at restaurants to know that leaving a decent tip and a kind word go a long way. In addition, I always try to consider what a server might be dealing with in his/her personal life before I make it more difficult by being a pain in the you-know-what.

OK, enjoy this post, and remember not to forget what you learn when you sit down to eat your Sunday dinner!
