1. Spend all the money you just worked hard for this week on something lame. Lame things would include but are not limited to: KENO, lottery tickets, dinners that cost more than your weekly food budget, $10 movie tickets (are there any wholesome movies out right now?), dates with unsaved, ungodly, unequally yoked girls/guys, and upgrading to a 50” flat screen – ‘cause 42” is just way too small.
2. Spend your valuable weekend time doing things which have no eternal value. This would include the mall, watching TV, staring at your laptop (which you’re doing right now…), hanging out with loser friends, and sitting on the couch trying to figure out what to do….for two days straight.
3. Stay inside. We live in New England. It was snowing and freezing cold and dark for the past 6 months. And then it rained for a whole month of spring. It is hot, sunny, and gorgeous. Get out of your cave and out into Eden. Fresh air = good mood.
4. Ignore people. You deserve to get some alone time. The family can wait. Your friends and their needs can wait. That person who has been texting you and asking to meet for coffee can wait. Your mother can wait. Your kids can handle time without you. Not.
5. Skip church. Want to really go to a new level of LAME? Forget God and forget church this weekend and go do #1-4. L.A.M.E.
No wonder so many people hate Mondays.
Get yourself off the couch, out of the house, with some good friends and family, and into the church.
