Mail fight

Things got heated in a Pasadena, Maryland, community on May 31: As residents waited for their mail two letter carriers got into a fight in the street. One witness said that one of the mail carriers “punched the window on the other one’s mail truck,” and that “one backed up and slammed into the other one like bumper cars.” One witness said, “There was mail all over the street. They kept going around the block, and at one point, they were front-to-front, hitting their bumpers together.” Residents called 911, and the postal service sent other carriers to pick up the mail, as well as officers.

Unfortunately this is like a lot of churches today. We have been given a job; deliver good news. But some of us are so busy fighting with each other we forget what we are supposed to be doing. Maybe we need to focus more on the mission and less on fighting amongst ourselves.
