Today lunch was not good.  An attempt at Swedish meatballs.  I ate the noodles.  But the peach pie made up for it.  One lady at the table I sit at never likes anything they serve her.  It makes for pleasant conversation (Ha ha).  I am learning about people in a different setting than church.

I sat down at a new table last week and a man who was sitting there looked up, and his opening salvo was, “I’m an atheist.”  He didn’t know me from Adam, but I guess he wanted to be sure I wasn’t a “Holy Roller” who was going to talk about hell.  He followed that line with, “Christians make God up in their own image.”  I guess he had been bitten by a “Holy Roller” somewhere in his past.  I didn’t even get to say, “Hello, my name is Janie.”

I’m learning.  I certainly don’t wear a name tag that labels me as a Christian, but maybe we followers of Christ have a certain persona? I certainly hope so!!!
