[From center of chancel after sermon hymn.
Stand from kneeling in prayer and look over shoulder and then turn and ask…] “Excuse me?
Do you have the time?” [Pause].
“What?
It’s 10:45 already?
I’ve got places to go, people to see, errands to run and a TV show to catch this evening.
I need to get all these things done so I can relax tonight.
But first, first, I need to get to lunch though!
Oh, if I wait another hour there’s going to be a wait at the Olive Garden!
Can this thing take any longer?
I’m on a schedule!
Time is short!”
“What’s that?” [Pause] “Oh, really?
Oh, no!
When did it happen?
Yeah, yeah I knew him well.
We talked a lot.
He was such a nice man, always took time to talk to me before worship.
I just talked to him last week.
You said, last night right?
His family was there right?
Good.
I can’t believe he’s gone so fast.
I mean to think one moment I was talking with him about the Super-Bowl and our plans and a week later he’s gone, I mean wow!
Time is short!” [Pause, slowly walk as if in thought over to the pulpit].
The grace of Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
Amen.
Do you have the time?
