this morning, i was someplace i go to regularly but not really often... whenever i am there, i make it a point to drop by the church... well, this morning, parking was full... i circled the compound and saw a row of vacant parking slots -> reserved for certain personnel though...
i drove close to the guard and requested to park just a very short while. i said i'll just say a prayer in the church then leave.
the guard declined.
i tried again: 'just one Our Father and then i'll go...'
no.
me: 'ok... just a sign of the cross and then i'll leave.'
still a no. but the guard directed me, with a smile, to a small side road. he said i could park there.
me: 'aren't they gonna tow me there? i've been tire-locked here before...'
the guard assured me it's ok.
i parked, ran to the church, said a short prayer then drove off. i just continued my prayer at home. the venue is immaterial anyway. God is omnipresent.
